The Cold War defined the latter half of the 20th century, and at its center stood two superpowers locked in an ideological battle for global dominance. Yet, in an unexpected turn of events, the seemingly indestructible Soviet Union crumbled from within, leading to the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of a decades-long standoff. This book delves deep into this dramatic shift in world history, exploring how one man-Mikhail Gorbachev-ushered in a new era that shaped the global order. In this meticulously researched book, Robinson takes readers through the critical events that unraveled the Iron Curtain, exploring Gorbachev's rise to power, his bold reform policies of Glasnost and Perestroika, and his diplomatic efforts with world leaders like Ronald Reagan. This book provides a riveting narrative of how cracks began to form in the Soviet Bloc, leading to the 1989 fall of the Berlin Wall-a symbol of division that, for nearly 30 years, split not only a city but the world. Key events such as the nuclear arms race, proxy wars, and the growing dissent within the Soviet Union are brought into sharp focus, offering readers a comprehensive understanding of the Cold War's most crucial moments. Additionally, the book captures the global reaction to these earth-shattering changes, from scenes of jubilation in Berlin to the collapse of communist regimes across Eastern Europe, and the eventual dissolution of the USSR itself. Perfect for history enthusiasts, students, and anyone fascinated by the intersection of politics, diplomacy, and human perseverance, the book provides fresh insights into the end of the Cold War and the legacy of Gorbachev-a man whose vision changed the course of history. Discover the events that tore down walls, ended an era of conflict, and shaped the world we live in today.
