Good Morning Everyone,
Here is a little something I have gathered and think you will find interesting.
1. Bloomberg News is reporting the following headline: Berlin to Turn Cold-War Airlift Site Into 1,700 Affordable Homes
It seems the grounds of Tempelhof Central Airport are slated to be the latest location in Berlin to be turned into affordable housing. You can read the entire article here: http://www.businessweek.com/news/2013-09-12/berlin-to-build-homes-at-airport-used-for-cold-war-airlift
2. "And Then We Take Berlin"
The new book by author John Lawton is out: "And Then We Take Berlin". It offers a new and different spin on life in Post War Berlin and the early goings of the Cold War. "John Lawton’s terrific “And Then We Take Berlin” tells the story of a
British soldier-cat burglar who becomes involved in post-war Berlin’s
black market, then is asked to apply his skills in the service of a
serious Cold War plot."
Should be interesting to read. Read the Seattle Times Article here: http://seattletimes.com/html/books/2021755698_lawtontakeberlinxml.html
3. 1940s drama ‘Foyle’s War’ returns on PBS
For those of you that want the Cold War served up on your television screen be sure to check out "Foyle's War" on PBS (check you local listings for time and date). This British produce series is in its seventh season and it promises to be a good one. The lead character Christopher Foyle is "asked" by British Intelligence Service MI5 to investigate and confirm the existence of a Soviet spy network working in London.
