Includes Index. Deckled fore-edges. Book Club Edition "The memoirs of Charles E. Bohlen sweep through nearly thirty-five years of Soviet-American relations. From the pen of one of America’s foremost experts on the Soviet Union come new disclosures, fresh insights, and penetrating assessments regarding the momentous events that have shaped the world since 1934. Bohlen was there. He helped open the first embassy in Moscow in 1934 and saw William Bullitt's illusions about amicable relations shattered. He attended the last of the great purge trials of the 1930s. . . . In his memoirs Bohlen faces up to the issues, confesses to error, points the finger of blame, gives credit where it is due, appraises the personalities, responds to the revisionist historians, and, in the end, offers his view of the future" [from the dust jacket].
