It is more riveting than any fictional account. (less)

Eagle Over the Kremlin by Leo Barron
"This book was so intense! Tank battles, urban warfare, room clearing, the threat of nuclear war, it’s all here. Every nail-biting angle to war you would want to see is here. All the while, you are given political decision-making and its fallout too. " Read more of this review »
