Author Description

This book traces the rise to power and the wartime relationshop of Stalin, Roosevelt and Churchill. The three only met twice, at Yalta and Potsdam, and although they were allies fighting a common enemy, the seeds of the Cold War were already sown at those meetings. The post war "special relationship" between Roosevelt and Churchill and the Cold War between them and Stalin were concentrated by the atomic bomb: the essential difference between pre- and post-war international diplomacy.
