Third World War

Bobbi has a link at her blog to a 1951 issue of Collier's magazine that's written as though it's a retrospective from 1960 looking back at a hypothetical WWIII that was sparked by a Soviet invasion of Yugoslavia. It's even got World War Three Willy & Joe cartoons by Bill Mauldin.

Joe in New Mexico

The whole thing reminds me of The Third World War: August 1985 by Sir John Hackett, a book whose covers I read clean off in middle school.
