{"product_id":"hostage-to-history-cyprus-from-the-ottomans-to-kissinger","title":"Hostage to History: Cyprus from the Ottomans to Kissinger","description":"In a compelling study of great-power misconduct, Christopher Hitchens examines the events leading up to the partition of Cyprus and its legacy. He argues that the intervention of four major foreign powers, Turkey, Greece, Britain and the United States, turned a local dispute into a major disaster. In a new preface for this 1997 edition, Hitchens reviews the implications of the Republic of Cyprus’s applications for European union membership, the escalating regional arms race between Greece and Turkey, and last year’s Greek Cypriot protests along the partition border.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1859841899\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.1859841899.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Christopher Hitchens\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book is in very good condition.
