Britain, the Six-Day War and Its Aftermath
ISBN: 9781850434061 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Britain's reputation in the Middle East was reduced to shreds by the Suez fiasco in 1956.

The Six-Day War and its Aftermath is essentially an insider's account that refutes the ""Big Lie"" and traces British policy of strict impartiality and the pursuit of economic and political objectives in a turbulent...
