Description
The second part of this political biography of Edvard Beneš covers the period from 1935, when this professionally and personally mature politician, well versed in the complex international situation, is appointed president of Czechoslovakia, through the post-war years marked by futile efforts to save democracy. The book presents a chronological account of the Munich crisis, the second Czechoslovak resistance and the construction of the post-war republic, bringing together material previously scattered throughout an enormous body of literature and factual documentation in the dramatic political story of a figure who became both a co-creator and a victim of Czech history.
