Evan Mawdsley, Honorary Professorial Research Fellow, University of Glasgow :
"Michael Jabara Carley provides unique insights into the failure of the international response to Hitler’s aggressive policies of the late 1930s. His invaluable work is deeply rooted in the archives, especially those of the Russian government."

Sergei Kudryashov, Head of the Department of War Studies, Institute for Russian History, Russian Academy of Sciences :
“This is compelling research of the highest academic level. Michael Jabara Carley provides his readers with a meticulous study of a very complicated subject – international relations in the Second World War and in particular the role played by the USSR. For all students of Soviet policy, this book is a must read.”
