Europe’s Road to Potsdam, by Wenzel Jaksch; tr. and ed. by Kurt Glaser. Praeger, $9.50
The problems of Central and Eastern Europe have frequently occupied political writers during the last decades. It is regrettable that most of their books have been devoted to propaganda instead of being scholarly, objective studies. The case of Professor A. J. P. Taylor is typical; his so-called historical writings are mostly biased partisan pamphlets. Political upheavals, frequent in this area, tend to open the gates to all manner of historical, economic and social propaganda, promoting varied and frequently contradictory aims.
