summary
An excellent historical synthesis of world history since the disintegration of European democracies and the advent of totalitarian regimes at the end of the 1930s, to the Caribbean crisis and Khrushchev’s fall in 1964. Durman gives the account of, among others, the world in the shadow of the Nazi Germany, World War II, the break-up of Europe, Cold War, and de-stabilisation of the Third world.
