King George VI
From the moment of his accession to the close of his life King George was faced with a series of major emergencies - the aftermath of the abdication, the Czechoslovak crisis, the six searing years of war, followed by the grim auserity and grave problems of the post-war reconstruction period.

The hope is that this book will provoke thought about the future of our nation in order to help us to decide what we need to do, not to copy but to create.

The Story of International Relations, Part Two
This book is the second volume in a trilogy that traces the development of the academic subject of International Relations, or what was often referred to in the interwar years as International Studies. In this volume, the author begins with the 1932 Mission to China and conference in Milan, examines the International Studies Conference, reviews the Hoover Plan, the MacDonald Plan, the fate of the World Disarmament Conference, and the League of Nations’ role in the discipline. This one of a kind project takes on the task of reviewing the development of IR, aptly published in celebration of the discipline’s centenary.
