Book Cover for American writer Philip Minehan

I feel incredibly privileged to be asked to produce an image for Philip Minehan’s well received book. It has been a fascinating experience and a great honour…
“Philip Minehan’s masterful and lucid comparative analysis is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the bloody mid-20th  century civil wars in Spain, Yugoslavia and Greece, which influenced the Mediterranean region until the end of the century. This first book by Minehan is a highly recommended tour de force.”
