Most of my readings recently were related to the cold war. KGB: The Inside Story By Christopher Andrew and Oleg Gordievsky is a beast of a book that I admit I didn't read the whole thing, but what I did read was pretty interesting. Gordievsky was the highest ranking Soviet defector (a colonel) and kind of showed the west just how paranoid the Soviet leadership had gotten by the 80s. I also liked The Turn: From the Cold War to a New Era: The United States and the Soviet Union, 1983-1991 by Don Oberdorfer. The same guy also wrote two books about Vietnam called Tet! and Last Reflections on a war, but I haven't read either of those yet. He also had one about the Korean War called Two Koreas.
