Sobre este item
Chatto & Windus, London - second impression 1971 hardcover, 5¾" x 8¾", with dust jacket Ours is an ex-library copy in transparent protective covering, with usual stamps, stickers, barcode, etc. GOOD book in GOOD unclipped dust jacket From the Baltic to Czechoslovakia stretches an 860-mile frontier - the world's most hazardous border - fortified with mines, tripwires, floodlights, dogs, watchtowers and fifty-thousand soldiers. Starting with the mapping of post-WWII occcupation zones and the exodus of Germans to the West, this book examines every aspect of this border: political, military, economic and social; its development during the Cold War, the guards who man it on both sides, the escapes, the deaths, the villages, the checkpoints and the broken power and telephone lines. Its one stretch of the Iron Curtain that is far from decaying. The book is engagingly illustrated and well indexed.
