註釋
Washington Post diplomatic correspondent Oberdorfer covered most of the high-level exchanges of the last decade between the United States and the Soviet Union and interviewed the major participants. In this lengthy chronicle, he presents an insider's view of the summit meetings and behind-the-scenes maneuvers that drastically changed the relations between the two superpowers. Gorbachev is identified as the prime agent and apostle of change in his country's dealings with the outside world. On the American side, the author names George Shultz as the key figure in improving relations with the Russians. Starting with President Reagan's March 1983 condemnation of the "evil empire" and culminating in Gorbachev's May 1990 trip to Washington, this dramatic history adds valuable details to the picture of the rapprochement between two enemies.
