Origins of the Second World War (A.J.P Taylor)

A lot of you might have heard of A.J.P Taylor, a well-respected historian. In this book, he puts together all his insightful thoughts and interpretations about the cause of the Second World War. Once again, this book is definitely good to read as it carries objective analysis, those types of things that not many people think of. He speaks from a critical viewpoint to analyse factors such as Hitler's policies and provide the evidences he found regardless of whether it follows the stereotypical viewpoint (e.g. he provides evidence that shows Hitler to be an innocent man in the outbreak of the war).

'Highly original and penetrating...No one who has digested this enthralling work will ever be able to look at the period again in quite the same way' - Sunday Telegraph
