Publisher Comments:

In the tradition of John Reed's classic Ten Days That Shook the World, this bestselling account of the collapse of the Soviet Union combines the global vision of the best historical scholarship with the immediacy of eyewitness journalism. "A moving illumination . . . Remnick is the witness for us all."--Wall Street Journal.

Review:

"The most eloquent chronicle of the Soviet empire's demise published to date....It is hard to conceive of a work that might surpass it." Francine du Plessix Gray, Washington Post Book World

Review:
