- Binding: Paperback
- Edition: 0002
- Publisher: St Martins Pr
- Publish date: 12/01/1997
In 1917, John Reed, an American journalist, wrote Ten Days That Shook The World, the classic account of the 1917 Communist revolution in Russia. Now, Fred Coleman, a Moscow correspondent who spent over 30 years gathering observations, has produced this sweeping examination of the collapse of the Soviet Empire.
Among Coleman's revelations are the inside stories behind:
-- Krushchev's fall from power
-- Why Brezhnev's invasion of Czechoslovakia was doomed to failure
-- Gorbachev's rationale for risking reform
-- Yeltsin's death blow to the Soviet state
Coleman has created an indispensible history of the Soviet Union that will be read for years to come.
Must reading for all who seek a clear picture of the Soviet period". -- Malcolm Toon, Former U.S. Ambassador To Moscow
