Reviews

[Valerie Thompson]

I am assuming this is The Great Betrayal because I cannot find that title only this one. Assuming it is, as with The Last Secret by the same author, it's a disturbing read. My heart still goes out to the Albanians.

[Leslie Zunker]

Good, brief history of post-WWII Albania

[Bardhyl]

A great account of CIA's & MI6's efforts to topple the Communist regime in Albania during 1949-1953 using Albanian dissidents. Better than Lulushi's book.
