It began during World War II, when American and Soviet troops converged from East and West. Their meeting point, a small German city, became part of a front line that solidified shortly thereafter into an Iron Curtain. It ended in a climactic square-off between Ronald Reagan's America and Gorbachev's Soviet Union. In between were decades of global confrontation, uncertainty, and fear.
Drawing on new and often startling information from newly opened Soviet, Eastern European, and Chinese archives, this thrilling account explores the strategic dynamics that drove the Cold War, provides illuminating portraits of its major personalities, and offers much fresh insight into its most crucial events. Riveting, revelatory, and wise, it tells a story whose lessons it is vitally necessary to understand as America once more faces an implacable ideological enemy.

What did you love best about The Cold War?
This is a must read for those interested in how the West and the USSR, partners during WWII, turned into bitter rivals. Gaddis does a masterful job in painting the closing days of the second world war into the first salvos of what would later become the Cold War. He then thoroughly analyzes many important periods of the era, including the nuclear building, confrontation over Berlin, the Cuban Missile Crisis, Vietnam, the election of Reagan.Gripping explanation of the Cold War, start to end

This is a nice resource if you need help getting through the book, but if you want to get this book for fun, **because it is a tremendously informative and engaging read**, but I would say get the physical book and ignore this audiobook. :/ Your inner reading-voice is likely MUCH more engaging than this reader.
