What if the deadliest war in history could have been stopped before it began?
The world remembers the flames of World War II—but few truly understand how the fire was lit. Behind the fall of nations and the rise of dictators lies a story of ignored warnings, dangerous bargains, and silent betrayals that pushed humanity into darkness.
In What Really Started World War II?, you’ll be taken on a gripping journey into the heart of the 1920s and 1930s—a time when peace was promised but war was quietly brewing. From the Treaty of Versailles that humiliated Germany, to Hitler’s rise from obscurity, Mussolini’s hunger for empire, Japan’s invasion of Manchuria, and the world’s fateful policy of appeasement—every choice carried consequences that would change history forever.
This is not a dry textbook. This is history—where every chapter pulses with human ambition, fear, and survival. You’ll see how:
* A “peace treaty” planted the seeds of vengeance that Hitler would use as his weapon.
* Fascism in Italy and militarism in Japan reshaped fragile balances of power.
* The Spanish Civil War became a rehearsal for global destruction.
* Austria and Czechoslovakia were sacrificed to appease a dictator.
* Poland’s tragic fall lit the fuse that ignited a worldwide inferno.
Each page pulls you deeper into the choices that unleashed the bloodiest conflict in human history—and leaves you questioning how silence, hesitation, and compromise can create disasters bigger than war itself.
If you’ve ever wondered:
* Could World War II have been prevented?
* Why did the world watch as Hitler grew stronger?
* What warnings were ignored before September 1939?
This book gives you the answers—told in a way that grips your heart and refuses to let go.
What Really Started World War II? is more than a history lesson. It’s a chilling reminder that history’s greatest tragedies are often born not of sudden violence, but of silence in the face of evil.
👉 Step into the shadows of the years before the war. Discover the truth. And ask yourself—would you have seen the darkness coming?

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
