Small Wars, Faraway Places by Burleigh
Posted: Wed Jan 08, 2014 9:00 am
Micheal Burleigh has just published Small Wars, Faraway Places, his history of the Cold War.
I've thought for some time that a really good book on the Cold War was needed and that the time had arrived in which one could be published, so I'm glad that Burleigh, an English historian, has taken a stab at it. I'll pick up the book, but I wondered if anyone here already had, and what they thought of it.
Burleigh is best known here for his history of Nazi Germany, which is absolutely excellent.
