He was the prime minister of UK before Winston Churchill. He refused to stand up to Adolph Hitler and even signed the awful Munich Agreement which paved the way for the Nazi invasion of Switzerland. He also was an isolationist like American pilot Charles Lindbergh.

I'd suggest you read Phillip Roth's seminal work  "The Plot Against America" which discusses an alternate history where Lindbergh becomes President of the U.S.




I'd suggest you read something about Chamberlain. He was a sincere man who did what he thought was best under the circumstances. Once war became inevitable he was completely behind Churchill in the war effort (as opposed to thrash like Halifax). It's funny that in the case of Chamberlain treachery is refusal to stand up against a foreign dictator, whereas in the case of Lieberman treachery is standing up against a foreign dictator. Ah, the irony...

And, just to vent my dislike of that Roth-book...a work of popular fiction with extremely weak basis in reality. Please. There are historians who actually know a little something about these matters.

And, lest I forget, Chamberlain was not an isolationist! That was exactly the problem with him. His belief in international cooperation was so strong that he would not act unilaterally against Hitler.
