THE RED ARMY MOVES by Geoffrey Cox
Can history repeat itself? Geoffrey Cox's remarkable account of the Winter War, Stalin's ill-judged invasion of Finland in 1939, has striking similarities with Russia's invasion of the Ukraine.
Geoffrey Cox was born in 1910 in New Zealand. He went to Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar and began his career as a journalist in 1935. He reported on the Spanish Civil War, he was in Paris for the Daily Express when he broke the news in 1938 that British troops had arrived in France. He covered the Winter War in Finland. He enlisted in the New Zealand Army, serving in Crete and North Africa as an intelligence officer on General Freyberg's staff. In 1956 he joined ITN, the new commercial TV channel in Britain as News Editor of Independent Television News. In 1967 he founded News At Ten, the first thirty minute news bulletin on British television. He was knighted in 1966 for services to journalism. Hew died in 2008.
