Cold War Hot: Alternate Decisions of the Cold War







It was in the Third World that the ambitions and fears of the two Cold War superpowers were played out--Korea, Vietnam, Egypt and Syria, Afghanistan. The authors of this book make real such terrifying possibilities as Korea or the 1967 War dragging in both superpowers. "Cold War Hot" vividly brings to life these and many other alternate scenarios, taking the reader behind the scenes at momentous moments in history. In showing what could have happened, the authorsâ€"leading historians of the period--show how precarious the Cold War peace actually was, and how little it would have taken to tip the balance into World War III.
