Churchill's Third World War - British Plans to Attack the Soviet Empire 1945

A haunting study of the war that so nearly was, Walker offers a fascinating insight into the upheaval as the Second World War drew to a close and the Allies' mistrust of the Soviet Union that would blossom into the Cold War.
