Cold War
For almost 50 years after World War II, the antagonism caused by two rival ideologies--democracy and communism--dominated international politics. In the first comprehensive study of the cold war since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, James Warren takes a thoughtful look at where America has been and where we might be headed. BandW photos.

Provides one of the few overviews of a subject not normally covered in this age range. Ignore the previous review, the liberal slant and college level language used, infers a biased student, who knows little except what overpaid college profs(who had little or no involvment in the actual event) tell them. Take it from this reviewer, who actually fought in the cold war. Your better off with an American slant(which is a whole lot closer to the truth than a Russian slant would ever be.) After all the title is The American Crusade Against the Soviet Union, what kind of bias did you expect.
