The Lewis and Clark Expedition Day by Day by Gary E. Moulton (review)

wielded by PR fi rms operated alongside military reconnaissance as a bulwark against the Soviet threat. Mingus does a good job at giving nuance to potentially highly polemical subject matter, such as the contradictions of denazifi cation, or how the Western Allies consistently violated treaty agreements with the Soviets outlined at Yalta and Potsdam leading to the Berlin blockade. However, at times it can read too much like a dissertation, overburdened with details like a failed concept for a PR contract bid to represent West Germany in the US. Moreover, the work is short and somewhat limited in scope; those specifi cally interested in denazifi cation or remapping East Germany will have to continue elsewhere. Nevertheless, Mingus presents an important contribution to a timely subject, as supranational institutions birthed during this time, like NATO and the European Union, are called into question and remapped.
