Khrushchev's Cold War: The Inside Story of an American Adversary
Aleksandr Fursenko and Timothy Naftali
Khrushchev’s Cold War is the untold story of the Kremlin’s goals during the Cold War years—and what it was willing to do to achieve them. In this portrait of an era that witnessed some of the most dangerous brinksmanship of the Cold War, Fursenko and Naftali brilliantly capture the man who, at the very height of his power, held the entire world in his thrall.
