About This Item
William Heinemann, London - first edition 1954 hardcover, 5¾" x 8¾", with dust jacket Jacket edges a little worn. VERY GOOD book in GOOD price-clipped dust jacket Ten b&w photographs, and index. Gordon Shepherd, as correspondent for London's 'Daily Telegraph', spent eight years in Vienna and became a close student of Danubian affairs - watching 'from a seat in the stalls' the developments behind the Iron Curtain. He describes the incursion of Russian power into Eastern and Central Europe, and speculates undogmatically about the likely outcome [remember, this book was written over 50 years ago].
