An International History

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The new edition of this pioneering study traces the postwar inter-relationships of all the rim and island nations. Integrating a wide range of information from published and unpublished sources - including recently-opened Russian and American archives and the first-hand experiences of participants - it provides a unique impression of the make-up of the region, and the tensions within it. Vigorously written and strongly argued, no other account brings together all the threads of the development of international relations in this complex and fascinating region.
