Award-winning Harvard historian S.M. Plokhy delivers a “convincing revisionist analysis” (Publishers Weekly) of the February 1945 Yalta conference. Bolstered by Soviet wiretaps, Plokhy’s engrossing narrative of Stalin, Churchill, and FDR’s negotiations reveals the West did better than previously thought. “An astute reappraisal of the Yalta Conference … Fresh research drives this scholarly study of the complex blend of Yalta’s personalities and ideas.”—Kirkus Reviews
