THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
'This is a proper piece of journalism. It's a fascinating book. I read it from start to finish in a single sitting' Alastair Campbell, THE REST IS POLITICS
'Anyone... wanting to understand the context of the US president's Greenland landgrab should buy POLAR WAR' THE TIMES
Russian spies. Sabotaged pipelines. Troop movements and threats to 'take Greenland'. Tensions are building at the top of the world.
The Arctic stands at the crossroads of geopolitical ambition and environmental catastrophe. President Trump's assertions on Greenland reveal a regional context where fast-moving climate change is opening up new trade routes, untapped natural resources and long-frozen biological weapons. Award-winning commentator Kenneth R. Rosen draws on first-hand reportage and testimony to document the race to control this strategically crucial territory. Can America, which since the 1990s has lagged behind on infrastructure, really reimpose its might against the superior technology and strategic engagement of Russia and China? Above the Arctic Circle, the world's superpowers stand on the brink of a new cold war - and every day it grows hotter.
Timely and incisive, Polar War is an essential account of the interests, landscapes and people at the world's most extreme frontier.
