Folks— The book I just reviewed—American Labour’s Cold War Abroad by Anthony Carew—is expensive, as Ruth Needleman pointed out. (Obviously, that’s the publisher’s decision, in which I had no input.) However, if you go to the Athabasca University web site—http://www.aupress.ca/index.php/books/120277 <http://www.aupress.ca/index.php/books/120277> —and go down to the middle of the page (across from “Details”), you will find that it can be downloaded for free. But it’s quite big: 510 pages. But it is some fascinating reading! Cheers— Kim > On Dec 18, 2018, at 11:59 AM, Needleman, Ruth A. <rneedle@iun.edu> wrote: > > wow $58 for the book.
