A History of Czechoslovakia Between the Wars
From Versailles to Hitler's Invasion
Patrick Crowhurst New Hardback
Postscript summary
The state of Czechoslovakia that was created by the Treaty of Versailles comprised Czechs and Slovaks, but also Sudeten Germans who, in defeat, were denied self-determination. This history reveals how the new frontiers established in 1918 were to lead to social and economic tensions, nationalism and, eventually, war.
Product information
Full publisher description
Here, Patrick Crowhurst identifies the crucial political problem that faced Czechoslovakia between 1918 and 1939 - the rift between the Czechs and the Sudeten Germans that would open the way for the rise of Konrad Henlein's right-wing 'Sudeten Deutsch' party, and which was exploited ruthlessly by Hitler during Nazi Germany's 1938 annexation of Czechoslovakia. A History of Czechoslovakia Between the Wars deepens our understanding of a fragile Europe before World War II, and is essential for students and scholars of 20th century history.
