As Year 10 start on the topic of the Cold War, here are one or two books that are worth reading to really get acquainted with this extraordinary period of recent history.
Historian Gaddis has produced a very readable, fast paced account of all aspects of the Cold War, from the end of World War 2 to the end of the Soviet empire.
Martin Walker is a journalist who brings his journalistic training to produce another, gripping read about the Cold War. Both the Gaddis and Walker books are almost like novels in their approach.
The book that accompanied the CNN video series which we use in lessons - the hardback version contains a range of excellent photos as well.
