The Inter-War Crisis is a concise yet analytical overview of the rapidly-changing world between 1918 and 1939. Revised throughout, this third edition covers topics such as the Russian Revolution, the Wall Street Crash of 1929, the concepts of the ’end of civilization’ and the decline of the West, and the ways in which dictatorship came to replace democracy across so much of Europe. Also including a selection of over thirty primary source documents, maps, a chronology of events, a glossary of key terms, a Who’s Who of important figures and an extensive and updated guide to further reading, this book is an essential introduction for students of the inter-war period.
