Inspecting the Unexpected (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781547091690)

Inspecting the Unexpected is a novel written by a Canadian weapons inspector who from 1993-1995 carried out missions in Eastern Europe to verify the destruction of conventional weapons in Europe. It tells the story of how those missions were conducted, the problems encountered and the discoveries made as it became increasingly apparent that some government departments were looking to cash-in on the peace dividend in self-serving ways. As well as being a unique time-capsule of an intriguing moment in history, it looks at different people's views on where they thought Europe was moving and how, in such interesting times, it might all turn out. This is essential reading for those wanting to understand how various military forces in Soviet Europe dealt with the end of the Cold War.
