Stalin, Churchill, and Roosevelt divide Europe

Meer over het boek

The division of Europe between East and West, born during World War II, not only denied independence to more than 100 million East Europeans, but upset the balance of global power, putting Stalin in a position to threaten Western Europe and planting the seeds of the Cold War and the arms race. Nadeau probes the questions and facts surrounding the division of Europe and offers new insight into how it might have been prevented. Looking beyond the conventional assumption that Stalin simply took over Eastern Europe in the postwar years, the book shows how the Soviet leader was unrestrained by any prior Allied agreements.
