"Hitchens's book deserves wholehearted praise. His research has been thorough, his style is invigorating and he has written a compelling account of a tragic episode from first to last."- Times Literary Supplement "In his extensive, well-documented and even-handed book, Hitchens attempts, with remarkable success, to restore the recent history of Cyprus to its proper perspective."- Christian Science Monitor

    Absolutely first class. US to UK in 10 days - incredible service. The book is exactly as described and a very decent price for such a rarity. Postage charged all in (no extra upon going thru customs) - more than fair on the rate too. Packaged with extreme care and attention. A pity I can only award 5 stars as much more is deserved - thank you so much.
