Description: This pre-owned book is a unique trip through a history hidden from much of the world by the Iron Curtain. Khrushchev takes us from his days as a worker to Stalin’s deathbed and into a Soviet Union that few people understood. It also takes us through his viewpoint about the Cuban Missile Crisis and the error in judgment he made by placing missiles into Cuba. As is the case with so many people Khrushchev’s life was full of ups and downs, and how he tried to stoke communist ardor. Strobe Talbott does a masterful job of translating the premier’s words into English. The dust cover shows signs of aging, some wear, but the interior of the bookkeeps it in good condition. There are numerous photographs of Khrushchev throughout. This book is a pearl for historians and those who would like to better understand what the U.S.S.R. was all about.See photos for details.
