The Arms Bazaar in the Nineties: From Krupp to Saddam - Anthony Sampson

Anthony Sampson's updated bestseller plunges the reader into the real heart of the arms trade and culminates in examining the role of this multi-billion pound industry in the Gulf War. Beginning with the first giants like Vickers and Krupp, he analyses the Lockhead and Northrop scandals in the Middle East, the role of Adnan Khashoggi, and the deadly build-up of arms to the Shah. From the dramatic events of Irangate to the aftermath of the war in the Gulf, Sampson gives a unique insight into the world's most secretive and dangerous industry.
