it was amazing
bookshelves: classics, politics, sf-fantasy

One of my favorite books and one of the greatest bits of political satire, as the tiny Duchy of Grand Fenwick tries to fix their money woes by declaring war on a much larger nation, losing and then fixing their budget and country with the money the larger nation will spend to 'rebuild' the conquered nation.

unfortunately, Fenwick wins and is suddenly a world power...

Witty and entertaining as it points out the absurdity of world politics. Written in the 60's, it hasn't lost it's punch or relevance.
