An Atlas of World Affairs
New York: Frederick A. Praeger, 1957. W.H. Bromage. first edition. hardcover. 12mo from front flap: "The Baghdad Pact, the Oder-Neisse line, Suez, Aden, the partition of Ireland, the European Common Market, Kashmir, Formosa, Hongkong--all these are names and phrases that recur daily in the newspapers and in much of our conversation. At any moment world attention may be focused on one of the recurring trouble spots, one of the international projects, or one of the areas of agreement. To understand why so much turns on these problems, projects, and agreements, two things are needed--the essential facts and a good map. This conveniently arranged book provides both. More than seventy newly drawn maps focus on the most important territorial disputes, alliances, political trends and economic factors in our modern world."
