Informácie o knihe
The Cold War is one of the furthest-reaching and longest-lasting conflicts in modern history. It spanned the globe - from Greece to China, Hungary to Cuba - and lasted for almost half a century. It has shaped political relations to this day, drawing new physical and ideological boundaries between East and West.&,nbsp,In this meticulously researched account, Bridget Kendall explores the Cold War through the eyes of those who experienced it first-hand. Alongside in-depth analysis that explains the historical and political context, the book draws on exclusive interviews with individuals who lived through the conflict's key events, offering a variety of perspectives that reveal how the Cold War was experienced by ordinary people. From pilots making food drops during the Berlin Blockade and Japanese fishermen affected by H-bomb testing to families fleeing the Korean War and children whose parents were victims of McCarthy's Red Scare,&,nbsp,The Cold War&,nbsp,covers the full geographical and historical reach of the conflict.&,nbsp,Accompanying a landmark BBC Radio 4 series,&,nbsp,The Cold War: Stories from the Big Freeze&,nbsp,is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how the tensions of the last century have shaped the modern world, and what it was like to live through them.
