Winter War. Diplomatic Confrontation of the Soviet Union and Finland. 1939—1940

The book by Väinö Tanner illuminates the history of one of the "small wars" of the last century and tells the reasons that led Finland and the Soviet Union to confrontation in 1939—1940.

The author presents an unexpected perspective on the methods of Soviet diplomatic procedure and the backstage of international political kitchens, based on knowledge of historical realities and his own records from that time. Most of the material presented is published for the first time.
