Yes, it's a very interesting book, edited by the university Press of Kansas.

Moneyland: Why Thieves and Crooks now Rule the World and how to Take it Back by Oliver Bullough
A sort of funny book that explains from A to Z how some personages stash their moneys. Looks like the whole thing was started by the British (oh, I can't say I'm surprised
) in 1963, to basically circumvent the Bretton Woods' straitjacket. A good read so far.

What's the difference with the original edition?
As explained in the preface, the 1st edition dated from 1995, this one dated from 2015. Between this 2 dates, lot of soviet archives has been opened, from STAVKA, GKO, NKVD... so the book became more accurate, about battles, statistics etc...
...The twenty-six tables in the book’s second edition (versus the five in the 1995 edition) attest to the magnitude of new statistical evidence describing the scale of Soviet participation in the war. Among other things, the new edition broadens the definition of available manpower on both sides, including such overlooked groups as NKVD troops, Axis satellite armies, and dissident forces that the Germans recruited in the non-Russian portions of the USSR. It rejects traditional efforts by German generals to hold Adolf Hitler solely responsible for all German errors and atrocities...

What's the difference with the original edition?
According to the Authors:
"Up to 60 percent of the war’s content remained largely conjecture in 1995, but by 2015, this figure had decreased to roughly 10 percent. As a result, clarity is replacing opaqueness and truth is steadily winning out."

Oh my!! Just thought I'd give Seaforth Publishing a quick check and.....
...if this is anywhere near as good as their book on the Littorios then this will be a superb addition to the collection.
Well that has totally made my day. Out at the end of April apparently!!
Arrgghhh - put back to late May or early June.....
It's arrived - huzzah!! Trouble is I am up to my eyeballs in the east - so won't be able to give this too much attention in the short term....
Looks as great a quality as their earlier The Littorio Class though [&o].
