Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, the Bancroft
Prize, and the Parkman Prize From acclaimed diplomat and historian
George Kennan, a landmark history of the crucial months in
1917-1918 that forged the pattern of Soviet-American relations When
the Bolsheviks seized power in November 1917, American diplomats in
St. Petersburg and Moscow were thrown into a bewildering situation.
Should the new regime be recognized? What was its true nature? And
was there any way to keep Russia fighting against Germany in the
Great War? In vivid detail, George Kennan's classic history tells
the gripping story of the Americans' furious, and ultimately
failed, efforts to strike a deal to keep the Soviets in the war-and
how these events set the pattern of future relations between the
two emerging superpowers. In a new foreword, Kennan biographer
Frank Costigliola puts the book in the context of its Cold War
publication and Kennan's life.
