Rating: 4.0 out of 5 stars
Title: Informative, not quite as "exciting" as the publicity makes it out to be
Date: Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2016
Review: I bought this based on a brief review in The New Yorker that described it as "exciting" and "an hour-by-hour" account of the events of late October and early November 1956, when the USSR invaded Hungary (twice) to crush a popular uprising against Communism, and in Egypt, when Great Britain, France and Israel collaborated on an invasion intended to enable the West to re-take the recently nationalized Suez Canal and depose the leader, Nasser, who had sponsored the nationalization.
I found it informative, especially because I had never read about Suez. I was familiar with the Hungarian side of the story and in fact had studied under the Hungarian exile, Charles Gati, who is quoted several times in here. But it wasn't any more exciting than any other history book. This is mainly because the author necessarily devotes the first 200 pages to explaining what had given rise to the parties' interests and positions. For example, the inter-relation among the interests of Israel, France and Great Britain are explained by reaching as far back as the Balfour Declaration and the Sykes-Picot Agreement. One also learns about the Algerian situation (France) and the Baghdad Pact (G. Br.). So it takes a long time to get to a portion of the narrative that is truly hour-by-hour.
A related structural issue is that, while the events in Hungary and Egypt occurred simultaneously, there is not much obvious connection between the two. There is an obvious strategic fact, that the existence of a Western power invasion of Egypt made it difficult for the West to take the moral high ground re Hungary. I compliment the author on also divining another strategic relation, namely that the Hungary occupation diverted USSR attention from the Middle East and thus may have kept the latter situation from expanding into a wider WWIII-type conflagration. But there is no real narrative reason to tell these two stories in the same book.
The book draws mainly on US, UK, Egyptian and Soviet sources. Some Israeli and not much at all from French sources. I do not understand why there was little French insight. Candidly, I was stunned at the callous aggressiveness of the French government, which had no moral qualms about either the invasion or the false pretext that launched it and it would have been interesting to see how the French people and opposition dealt with that. On the topic of callousness, there were numerous massacres of civilians by the invaders of Egypt, and they are recounted here.
The predominant theme is one of British unpreparedness, incompetence and failure to anticipate secondary consequences. A secondary theme is the astonishing mendacity of the invaders' governments. Eisenhower is credited with maintaining a moral high ground and also bringing the conflict to an end through, of all things, financial pressure on the UK, the first successful use of financial sanctions in history, as one British leader notes. (Actually, throughout the book, I felt Eisenhower's big-picture views reminded me very much of those of the Obama Administration -- deeply wary of committing U S Forces; highly focused on the moral high ground; and supportive of financial sanctions). It was also interesting to see how everyone outside of the Soviets took the UN very, very seriously. Times have changed.
On the whole, I found the book informative, if not as exciting as its publicity would make it seem. I hope I have conveyed both aspects of my reaction effectively in this review.

Title: An Episode so riveting as to survive a flawed book
Date: Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2016
Review: Suez was a watershed of epic proportions on its own and coupled with thr Hungarian revolution created an unprecedented world crisis. The drama at the time was excruciating. Eisenhower's skillful leadership defanged the immediate threat of more serious world conflict but the events now sixty years ago resonate in current Middle East conflict.
This book provides the dramatic narrative but interrupts itself so often to veer off into historical asides that the reader is left to fend for him/herself. It's too bad because the tale is one of astounding diplomatic and military miscalculation and duplicity that nearly boggles the mind. It seemed lunatic sixty years ago and more so today.
Somehow the vast upheavals of that time simply faded away, overshadowed by the greater dramas of The Cuban missile crisis,the Vietnam war and other crises. But the confluence of Suez and Hungary was an explosive moment. It warranted a better book. Lots of riveting detail and attention to larger issues but a flawed organization of narrative and background that made this a slog even for a reader for whom this episode has always resonated.
Four stars because the subject matter is endlessly absorbing.

Title: Exraordinary Book
Date: Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2020
Review: Suez, Hungary , 1956 relevance to today. Remarkable in the sense of the portrayal of great leadership contrasted w the misguided acts of allies and historically credible statesman. Through today's lens baffling but the contrast between Eisenhower and the motley cast afoot today fascinating. Think of the cast of characters; Eisenhower , the second world war hero to whom doing the right thing is sacrosanct, Eden, victim of the lost glory of the British Empire, the Dulles boys, brilliant in there insight and wisdom [they must be rolling over in their graves w Pompeo] avoiding a potential WWIII while Khrushchev and Mao are scheming throughout. Von Tunzelmann somehow manages to keep you invested all the way. A brilliant piece of historical writing.

Title: The Empire Strikes Out
Date: Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2021
Review: This long-forgotten episode of last-gasp imperialism just after WWII deserves the clear and thoughtful treatment it receives here. Abdul Gamel Nasser comes alive again in this clear, well-written narrative as well as the tough-minded generation that founded modern Israel. If you want to know how things got so screwed up in the Mideast, this is a great book to start.

Title: Very interesting book
Date: Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2016
Review: Very well researched and un biased book on very complex events, which shaped the world.The Suez crisis was arguably marked the end the British Empire, and affirmed the USA as the new superpower. Simultaneously, the events in Hungary also made it clear the USA would prefer to fight each other through proxy wars, and avoid frontal confrontation, thus avoiding a nuclear holocaust. It takes historical honesty to dare to write something like this, just as von Tunzelmann did in Red Heat. It's quite understandable it will be uncomfortable reading for many, even more than 60 years as these events happened. It's a "page-turner", very easy and enjoyable to read. I look forward to read her next book.

Title: Soundly Researched and Analyzed
Date: Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2019
Review: Very absorbing explanation of the major crises of 1956 and their resolution. Gives Eisenhower too much credit. He totally botched the Hungarian crisis given how his Administration continually and irresponsibly egged on protesters in "captive nations," but then abandoned them in their hour of need.
Also rather hypocritical for him to find fault with Eden & France's hairbrained misadventure in Suez when he himself promoted similar stupid schemes in the same period in Iran, Syria, Guatamala, and Cuba.
The craftiest statesman throughout both crises was Khrushchev.
