يَرْوي كتاب «25 يوماً إلى عدن» القصةَ الحقيقية لتشكيلِ دُولِ الخليج العربي، خلالَ أسبوعٍ واحد، تحالُفاً من عشرِ دُولٍ، أطلَقَ أكبرَ عمليةٍ عسكرية تُشَنُّ من طرفٍ واحد. وقد تَعرَّضَت تلك الحملةُ لفتراتٍ من المدِّ والجَزْر؛ حيث كانت المُقاوَمةُ الجنوبية أحياناً على شفيرِ أن تُسحَق وهي تُقاتِل والبحرُ من ورائها، لكنها تَمكَّنَت من الصمودِ، وهزَمَت الغُزاةَ في نهاية المَطاف وانطلَقَت في إثْرِهم. إنها قصَّةٌ مُذهِلة تَرْوي كيف تَمكَّنَت جيوشٌ عربية من إنجازِ ما لم تَستطِع الولاياتُ المتحدة الأمريكية إنجازَه؛ أيْ مَنْع إيران من الحصول على مَوطِئِ قَدَمٍ في شِبه الجزيرة العربية. كما يروي الكتاب كيف تَمكَّنَت قواتٌ عربية خاصَّة من «قتالِ شبحٍ آتٍ من الجبال، بجوارِ أهمِّ مَعْبَرٍ بَحْريٍّ في العالَم»، مِثلما رَوى أحدُ المُقاتِلين المُشارِكين في الحَمْلة.

But for the soldiers of First Canadian army, who fought their way across the Rhine River and then through Holland and northwest Germany, that spring of 1945 was bittersweet. While the Dutch were being liberated from the grinding boot heel of the Nazis, their freedom was being paid for in Canadian lives lost.

Europe's internal borders have rarely been 'natural'; they have more often been created by accident or force. Successive powers have redrawn the map of our continent, with varying degrees of success: the fingerprints of Napoleon, Alexander I, Castlereagh, Napoleon III and Bismarck are all there, but the present shape of Europe is mostly the work of the Allies in 1919 and Stalin in 1945. In Borderlines, writer and political historian Lewis Baston journeys along and across key borders from west to east Europe, to explore their history.
