Reference for post WWII conflicts

[Orph3o]

Hi all,
I am trying to find a great resource that would list and provide details about all conflicts that happened worldwide since the end of WW2.

I found this book, however it is super expensive and I don't have excerpts of is content.
If anyone could recommend it or have other references this could be a great help.

Thanks!

Hi Teufel,

I am looking for a single reference tool I wouldn't have to recompile completely.
Wikipedia is a great tool no doubt about it, but its structure makes "overviews" really hard to get as I tend to unfocus and go gazillion ways... (any link that may be interesting, I click). I use it for "details" or "indepth".
Something a little more focused would be better.

Thomas.

Here's a couple good ones.

If you can make the trip to Ottawa to go to the Canadian War Museum, they do guided tours and it's not just on our history. You could also contact the Vimy Archives (contact should be on one of the pages below).

Thanks a lot RackMaster!
I was planning on going to the War Museum this summer!

Best,

(just scanned through them, exactly what I was looking for! thanks)

Plan for a full day when you go and even then, I'm not sure if you'll be able to take it all in. I've been about a half dozen times and I don't think I've seen it all, plus all the new and short term exhibits.
