Written with the aid of Moscow's newly opened archives, The Cold War Encyclopedia gives us, in a single volume, a complete and highly readable account of this important era. It uniquely brings these forty-five critical years to life, with 700 alphabetical entries of people, places, terms, weapons, and concepts; a chronology of relevant events from 1917 to 1991; and more than one hundred photos from the period. 0aCold WarxEncyclopedias. 4aGuerra fríavEnciclopedias  0aWorld politicsy1945-1989vEncyclopedias. 0aWorld politicsy1985-1995vEncyclopedias. 4aPolítica mundialvEnciclopedias  0aHenry Holt reference book
