A Historical Study Of The Berlin Airlift, William Earl Dofflemyer Jan 1964

A Historical Study Of The Berlin Airlift, William Earl Dofflemyer

The eleven-month siege was a determined attempt by Soviet Russia to starve the Berliners into surrender. The defense and the eventual victory over this attempt was provided by the miracle of the Berlin Airlift..

Yet while Sterne’s book was greatly enjoyed by the author’s contemporaries, Moby-Dick aroused very little contemporary interest. Was the style of …
