An overall coverage of the events leading up to World War II, the destruction therefrom and the dividing of Germany into four sectors, each under a major power.

The book then covers the Russian blockage of Berlin and the American and British efforts to supply the city with food and coal.

Afterwards, the book then covers the continuing American-Russian cold war conflict and mentions the failed invasion of Cuba, the Korean War, the erection of the wall around Berlin by the Russians, and the continuing efforts toward detente.

Includes numerous photographs and illustrations.
