"A major contribution to understanding the fall of the communist regimes in 1989 and of the part played by short-wave radio in undermining them. The depth and breadth of Michael Nelson's research is remarkable, worthy of the most renowned scholars. He has pulled together a mass of fascinating detail on a critical facet of international diplomacy that has never been adequately publicized. Fascinating reading."

Sig Mickelson, Former President, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty.

"An original and important contribution to the study both of international broadcasting and of the Cold War....based on solid research in many archives, and has a valuable comparative emphasis. This is rare and refreshing."

Asa Briggs, Author of The History of Broadcasting in the United Kingdom
