I'm reading up on The Cold War [View all]

If you lived through it, as I did, there's a lot you take for granted, but most moderns seem kind of vague on the subject. Mainly I'm doing it so my library doesn't remainder its collection for lack of interest.
Currently on loan:

Through the history of the Cold War : the correspondence of George F. Kennan and John Lukacs
by Kennan, George F. (George Frost)

The Cold War : a military history (maps, cartoons, op.eds etc.)

The Cold War by Hopkins, Michael F.

A world of trouble : the White House and the Middle East-- from the Cold War to the War on Terror
by Tyler, Patrick.

If you've read something particularly interesting on the subject, chime in.
