Overview

What if the Cold War didn't begin with a bang-but with a funeral, a telegram, and a city held hostage? Step into the smoke-filled rooms and war-torn streets where the world's most dangerous rivalry was born. From the sudden death of Franklin D. Roosevelt to the Berlin Blockade, From World War to Cold War unravels the gripping true story of how allies became adversaries-and how a divided world was forged in the ashes of victory. Few people know that Truman had never been briefed on the atomic bomb before becoming president. Or that Berlin, a city in ruins, became the stage for the first great standoff between East and West.
