Elaborate Description

A book which focus's is on the leaders of the Second World War. A step by step on the political issues surrounding the Alliance between U.S.A., U.K., and U.S.S.R. One constant strain on the alliance was Stalin, U.S.S.R. dictator wanting to regain the older frontier, the frontier that would potentially influence the future of Europe after the Second World War. The concern in this book is only for the social aspects of the three leaders and the cultural difference, alongside the hardships each faced. The strategies discussed are only superficially mentioned. An understanding is rarely given for why each side opposed it or wanted a particular strategy.
