The Greek Civil War

By David H. Close

The Greek Civil War (1943-1950) developed out of the rivalry between communist and conservative partisans at the end of the Second World War. It had major international consequences in keeping Greece (alone of all the Balkan nations) out of the Communist bloc and stopping the Soviets reaching the Mediterranean. Yet it has been neglected by historians. In this original study, David Close does justice to both the domestic context of the conflict and also to its international significance.
