The World We Left Behind: A Chronicle of the year 1939 - Softcover
From the back cover: History makes choices. The way we see things now is not always how they looked at the time. The task Robert Kee set himself in his chronicle of 1939 was to cut across the demarcation lines of history, to capture the way people perceived the events of the time as they unfolded. Turning to the newspapers of the day, Kee revives for us a world in which the Second World War is not yet a certainty - a world which still has countless other concerns which have not yet been dwarfed into insignificance by the European emergency - a world in which Chamberlain is still to many a credible leader, and Churchill and Roosevelt, thought giants in waiting, are less than monumental.
