Churchill, Hitler, and The Unnecessary War (2008)

"In this book, Pat Buchanan sheds new light on the causes on the two world wars that made the twentieth century the bloodiest in history and brought an end to 500 years of western dominance." "Drawing on the work of more than a hundred historians, Buchanan's insight to the true cause of Britain's collapse has been embraced by strategic experts, among them the dean of Cold War diplomacy George Kennan, who concurred with Buchanan's central argument, at the heart of this book, that it was Britain's 1939 war guarantee to Poland that sealed their fate and doomed the Empire."--BOOK JACKET.
