Between the Alps and a Hard Place, Switzerland in World War II and Moral Blackmail Today

In Between the Alps and a Hard Place, Professor Angelo M. Codevilla reveals how the true history of the Swiss in World War II has been buried beneath a modern campaign of moral blackmail that has accused Switzerland of secretly supporting Nazi Germany and sharing culpability for the Holocaust. Codevilla -- who practiced real-life, hardball foreign policy as an intelligence adviser in the U.S. Senate -- offers a primer on the realities of power politics, using the Swiss experience in World War II to illuminate the workings of the balance of power, military deterrence, economic leverage, and subversion.
