About Item: London: Hamish Hamilton, 1983. In this stirring account of the last 750 days of World War Two, Richard Collier's underlying theme is essentially the chaos imposed on Europe by President D. Roosevelt's obsession that Russia should become a partner in a post-war Grande Alliance, a belief that led to permanent enslavement of over one hundred million people behind the 'iron curtain' that Churchill forsaw; a war that only Josef Stalin, with Allied complicity, was to win. The contents provide a list of illustrations (a section of b/w photographs on heavier semi-gloss stock). One cartoon by David Low. The main content is followed by acknowledgements, source apparatus and index. Text shows edge-toning. Boards and endpapers remain bright. No names or inscriptions. Price-intact dust jacket with full wrap-around war scene. Jacket artwork by Brian Knight. A sound, most serviceable copy.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good.
