Reviews

`This is fascinating read for anyone interested in defence and intelligence issues.'
BBC Book of the Week, Arabic Service
`Robert Harkavy has produced a book that has long needed to be written, a comprehensive and well-organized analysis of bases and related military facilities around the world.'
Security and Arms Control
`This is a substantial piece of work. Harkavy provides a meticulous historical survey of how the two superpowers have obtained their bases ... a most useful survey.'
The Journal of Strategic Studies
`Harkavy has provided a treasury of basic data and analysis to inform both sides ... by far the most complete reference guide to an issue that is bound to grow in importance in the years to come.'
War Studies
`Harkavy has produced a meticulous and detailed study of US and Soviet military presence in foreign countries ... Detailed tables give data ... The work is well organized and has valuable notes and a bibliography.'
G.N. Sandwick, North Hennepin Community College, USA
`Robert Harkavy has produced a book that has long needed to be written, a comprehensive and well-organized analysis of bases and related military facilities around the world ... As Harkavy makes clear, bases also remain an issue of great political sensitivity, in both developed and Third World countries.'
Fred Halliday, London School of Ecoomics
'an excellent reference work ... Anyone interested in military matters should have it in his or her library.'
John C. Ausland, Oslo, Survival, Vol.xxxii, No.6 Nov/Dec 1990
