About This Item
Text is clean and unmarked in a bright, tight, and square binding. Volume appears unused. Glossy DJ is not priced clipped and is in fine condition. Photo section included. From the front DJ flap "From empire to impotence - no great power has fallen so far, so fast, as did Britain in the years 1951-1956. This crucial half-decade in the Cold War opened with the final return to office of Winston Churchill, shining symbol of Britain's hard-won victory in World War II; it closed with the defeat of Anthony Eden, his political heir, and of the nation itself in the Suez Canal."
