War or Peace?

Bernard Wiesberger shows the world an interesting view of the Cold War. Beginning with the History that started it and following through to most of Reagans Presidency. His view were unbiased and showed both sides as fairly as possibe. He tells how this 40 odd years of "war" changed the world. From the presidency of America to the government of Iran. This book is an interesting book if you would like to learn about the Cold War. I would reccommend it to any one above 10th or 11th grade.
