Book Synopsis
Exploiting new findings from former East Bloc archives and from long-ignored Western sources, this book presents a wholly new picture of the coming of World War II, Allied wartime diplomacy, and the origins of the Cold War. The author reveals that the widely believed story that Stalin's purposes in European diplomacy from 1938 on were mainly defensive is a fantasy.
