WW3 1985
I have just finished reading two books by the late General Sir John Hackett;
"The Third World War" and "The Third World War--The Untold Story."
Interesting stuff to be sure.
The air war (Central Region) includes a massive B-52 strike on massed WP forces at a crucial moment in the conflict at which the Buffs take heavy losses but make a big contribution to the successful allied counter-attack.
The land war is also covered in detail with accompanying maps as the WP sythe
into West Germany, Holland etc.
Most poignant of all is a single (nuclear) missile strike on Birmingham UK described in chilling detail (followed by an even bigger US/UK counter-strike on Minsk).
All pure fiction of course yet disturbingly believable even though the books were written over thirty years ago now.
Has anyone else read these fascinating books?
