Trade ReviewThe Devils' Alliance is
a marvellous achievement. No event was more crucial to the outbreak of the Second World War than the Nazi-Soviet Pact of August 1939, and
no one is better qualified to explore its grim implications than Roger Moorhouse -- Norman Davies
Superbly researched and
academically impeccable, yet written with all the pace of a thriller,
The Devils' Alliance shines a powerful beam into one of the undeservedly least known aspects of the Second World War -- Andrew Roberts
Meticulous and
vividly readable… Moorhouse’s grim and compelling book
could not be more topical * Sunday Telegraph *
A
highly enjoyable history
written with verve and attention to detail * Financial Times *
Superb -- Brendan Simms * Wall Street Journal *
