Hitler is determined to start a war. Chamberlain is desperate to preserve the peace.

Reviews

  • Grips from start to finish . . . Munich captures the mood of the times: the suspicion and the fear, the political intrigue, the swagger of the Nazi machine and the widespread elation at the mistaken belief that war has been averted. Superb.
    Simon Humphreys, Mail on Sunday
