Reviews

This book provides an excellent introduction to how the Cold War emerged, expanded, and endured. Kevin Grimm's incisive analysis and the important accompanying documents encourage readers to consider how ideology, domestic politics, international power alignments, and personality shaped decisions that led America deeper into the Cold War and whether U.S. officials could have made different choices at these critical moments. - Chester Pach, University of Ohio
