After Munich, the British Government expressed readiness to defend what remained of Czechoslovakia. Six months later, Hitler ignored the warning and initiated its conquest and partition; he faced only verbal condemnation. Yet, a fortnight later, Chamberlain's Cabinet tride and failed to protect Poland by a similar "guarantee". Their deliberations show how and why they had so miscalculated.
