1956, The World in Revolt by Simon Hall
Vibrantly and sympathetically told, this is the story of one remarkable year - a capsule history of exhilarating triumphs and shattering defeats around the world. 'Vivid, powerful and panoramic ... It was an epic contest, and one which made 1956 - like 1789 and 1848 - a year that changed our world.
