Recensione:

"Intensely observant....What this book shows...is that Mr. Yeltsin is a much more thoughtful and sensitive man than we had been led to suppose....[It is] a reminder of how delicate a plant Russia's flowering of freedom is, and suggests that in present circumstances, Mr. Yeltsin...may be the best--indeed the only--man to nurture it."--Paul Johnson, The New York Times Book Review

Dalla seconda/terza di copertina:

ly-praised journal of Russia's transition and struggle, with new material added, Yeltsin describes his stormy relationship with Gorbachev, the fateful August coup, and the October uprising. He reveals classified KGB documents concerning an array of topics, from Lee Harvey Oswald to the KGB arming of the IRA, and describes the painful and dangerous transition to a market economy.
