The Cold War by Lawrence Freedman

In 1945 the world was left with the powerful image of nuclear conflict. Over the next 45 years the great powers prepared themselves for the war that never happened. Meanwhile they tested each others resolve in many limited conflicts from Korea and Vietnam to the Arab-Israeli Wars, the Falklands and the Gulf. In this latest volume in the highly prestigious History of Warfare series, Professor Lawrence Freedman describes the fascinating nature of the cat-and-mouse game that was the Cold War.
Lawrence Freedman is the Chairman of the Board of War Studies at King's College, London. He is an expert on Nuclear Strategy and an advisor to the British Government on military issues. He is currently writing the Official History of the Falklands War.
