Review:

"The Devils' Alliance is a marvellous achievement. No event was more crucial to the outbreak of the Second World War than the Nazi-Soviet Pact of August 1939, and no-one is better qualified to explore its grim implications than Roger Moorhouse" -- Norman Davies "Superbly researched and academically impeccable, yet written with all the pace of a thriller, The Devils' Alliance shines a powerful beam into one of the undeservedly least known aspects of the Second World War" -- Andrew Roberts "Meticulous and vividly readable... Moorhouse's grim and compelling book could not be more topical" Sunday Telegraph "A highly enjoyable history written with verve and attention to detail" Financial Times "Superb" -- Brendan Simms Wall Street Journal
