Absolutely brilliant. Loved reading this book and found it very hard to put down. Helped me to understand some of the workings of NATO and the difficulties of working with so many member nations, some of whose votes have been bought by Russia through Russian assistance to those countries. Russia is playing a very long game but thankfully there are senior military minds who can see what Russia is doing and are working quietly behind the scenes to prepare for the next conflict. This book shows us what Russia is capable of and what can happen when the west is weak and unprepared .
