Publisher Synopsis
"This collection belongs in any good collection of Cold War history. Highly recommended." -- Choice "Choice" 'There are countless studies of the Cold War. Is there room for another one? Having read this book, the answer is very much affirmative - One of its many attractions is that it is not dominated by American and British writers but by authors from countries that formed the battle lines - Another attraction is that it is sensibly edited - the writing is direct and jargon free.' John Kirkaldy, Books Ireland, March 2014 Read more...
