Editorial Reviews

Review

“A fascinating and timely account of the current crisis in the relationship between Russia and the United States." -- New York Times Book Review

 "McFaul succeeds, shedding needed light on the most geopolitically competitive relationship of the last 75 years and attempting to explain the 'why and what' of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election." -- The Guardian

"Careful about providing evidence for his hard-earned opinions, [McFaul] is always clear and successfully assesses the level of complexity we lay-readers need to understand academic theories about revolutions and economics." -- Christian Science Monitor

"An invaluable memoir."  -- David Remnick  

"Vigorously argued."  -- Washington Post

"An expert political chronicle that often reads like a fast-paced thriller."  -- Booklist (starred review)

"Mike McFaul has lived history. In this terrific book, he recounts a pivotal time in U.S.-Russian relations, bringing the perspective of a central participant and one of America's finest scholars of Russian politics. This book will be valued by students, experts, historians and diplomats for years to come. It is a good read and an invaluable contribution at a crucial time." -- Condoleezza Rice, former Secretary of State under George W. Bush (2005-2009)

"[McFaul] provides useful insights into the changing relationship between America and Russia in this smart, personable mix of memoir and political analysis... an essential volume for those trying to understand one of the U.S.’s most significant current rivals."  -- Publishers Weekly

 "Of interest to observers of the unfolding constitutional crisis as well as of Russia's place in the international order." -- Kirkus Reviews

 “As both a first-hand observer and a key participant in many of the recent events that have shaped US-Russia relations, Ambassador McFaul has an important story to tell. From Cold War to Hot Peace is a gripping and intensely personal account of one of the most complex and consequential geopolitical developments of our time.” -- Madeleine Albright, former Secretary of State under Bill Clinton (1997-2001)
