At the Munich Conference of 1938, Chamberlain presented Hitler with an agreement that Germany and Great Britain promised to work together to solve all disputes in Central and Eastern Europe peacefully. When Chamberlain asked Hitler to sign it, Hitler did so enthusiastically. But Hitler had no intention of living up to the agreement and so missed a golden opportunity to forge a working alliance between Great Britain and Germany. When Chamberlain returned to London, he was met by reporters at the airport. It was this proposal that he waved above his head and proclaimed it represented "peace for our times." But little did he know that Hitler had no intention of taking the proposal serious and was already making plans to tear up the Munich Agreement and occupy the rest of Czechoslovakia. But what would have happened if Hitler had been shrewd enough to take Chamberlain up on the opportunity he presented to him? This is the story of what might have happened if Hitler kept his word to Chamberlain and used Chamberlain to achieve his goals of German domination of Central and Eastern Europe with going to war with the West. With British support Hitler begins manufacturing one crisis after another in Eastern Europe and then asks for Chamberlain's support to settle the disputes peacefully. Each time Chamberlain agrees and unwittingly helps Hitler expand Germany's power throughout Eastern Europe. One country after another joins the Axis Alliance until by 1943 most of Europe is fascist, including France and Britain. When Hitler finally unleashes a war against the Soviet Union in 1943 he has the backing of all Europe including the British and French Empires with their limitless resources. The large format Peace for Our Time is a single volume edition for both previous books subtitled The Anglo-German Cooperation and Operation Crusade.
