xxvi, 596pp; two sections of black and white photographic plates, 6pp maps. Black cloth-covered boards, gilt titles on spine. Pages starting to tan. Otherwise, internally neat, clean, bright and tight. Dust jacket, price unclipped. 8vo. 'The strength of this book lies in the cold realities it delivers. 'The thirteen months of 1947-48' says Fenby, 'provide trenchant examples of how realpolitik can serve a wider purpose if those in power know how to use it.' Crucible captures the urgency of the time.'
