Scotland and the Cold War | Jamison, Brian P. (ed.) | Cualann Press | 2003 | Scotland played an important role during the "Cold War", not least because the country had (and still has) one of the world`s biggest concentrations of nuclear weapons stockpiled in hidden locations. This study covers the period between the Second World War and the late 1990s and looks at, amongst other subjects, the build-up of the country`s nuclear weaponry (particularly the three submarine bases) and how the Scots reacted to this awesome arsenal. Other topics include the Peace Movement, the political parties, the military perspective and the general historical background to this important part of Scotland`s recent history. | 987 |
