First Edition. During the past ten years, few issues have mattered more to America's vital interests or to the shape of the twenty-first century than Russia's fate. To cheer the fall of a bankrupt totalitarian regime is one thing; to build on its ruins a stable democratic state is quite another. The challenge of helping to steer… post-Soviet Russia-with its thousands of nuclear weapons and seething ethnic tensions-between the Scylla of a communist restoration and the Charybdis of anarchy fell to the former governor of a poor, landlocked Southern state who had won national election by focusing on domestic issues. No one could have predicted that by the end of Bill Clinton's second term he would meet with his Kremlin counterparts more often than had all of his predecessors from Harry Truman to George Bush combined, or that his presidency and his legacy would be so determined by his need to be his own Russia hand. With Bill Clinton at every step was Strobe Talbott, the deputy secretary of state whose expertise was the former Soviet Union. Talbott was Clinton's old friend, one of his most trusted advisers, a frequent envoy on the most sensitive of diplomatic missions and, as this book shows, a sharp-eyed observer. The Russia Handis without question among the most candid, intimate and illuminating foreign-policy memoirs ever written in the long history of such books. It offers unparalleled insight into the inner workings of policymaking and diplomacy alike. With the scope of nearly a decade, it reveals the hidden play of personalities and the closed-door meetings that shaped the most crucial events of our time, from NATO expansion, missile defense and the Balkan wars to coping with Russia's near-meltdown in the wake of the Asian financial crisis. The book is dominated by two gifted, charismatic and flawed men, Bill Clinton and Boris Yeltsin, who quickly formed one of the most intense and consequential bonds in the annals of statecraft. It also sheds new light on Vladimir Putin, as well as the altered landscape after September 11, 2001. The Russia Hand is the first great memoir about war and peace in the post-cold war world. Fine cloth copy in an equally fine dw. Particularly and uncommonly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Literally as new; 478 pages; Impressively illustrated and complete with an extensive chronology of the first decade's main events 1 Kg.

Hardcover. Zustand: good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: good. First Edition [stated]. First Printing. x, 478, [8] pages, illus., chronology, notes, index, Ex-lib., usual library markings, DJ in plastic sleeve, DJ flaps pasted inside boards. Nelson Strobridge "Strobe" Talbott III (born April 25, 1946) is an American foreign policy… analyst associated with Yale University and the Brookings Institution, a former journalist associated with Time magazine, and a diplomat who served as the Deputy Secretary of State from 1994 to 2001. In 1972, Talbott, along with his friends Robert Reich (a fellow Rhodes Scholar) and David E. Kendall, rallied to his friends Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton to help them in their Texas campaign to elect George McGovern president of the United States. In the 1980s, he was Time's principal correspondent on Soviet-American relations, and his work for the magazine was cited in the three Overseas Press Club Awards won by Time in the 1980s. Talbott also wrote several books on disarmament. Following Bill Clinton's election as president, Talbott served at first managing the consequences of the Soviet breakup as Ambassador-at-Large and Special Adviser to the Secretary of State Warren Christopher on the New Independent States. He is currently the president of the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C., and a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. The author was a policy-maker for Bill Clinton; he details the former president's involvement with Boris Yeltsin and his role in keeping Russia stable as the onetime superpower confronted crisis after crisis in the post-Soviet era.During the past ten years, few issues have mattered more to America's vital interests or to the shape of the twenty-first century than Russia's fate.

Derived from a Kirkus review: An insightful evaluation, by a key player, of the Clinton administration's efforts to make an ally of America's former Russian foe. Russian democratization began well before Bill Clinton took office, but, to hear former policy advisor Talbott tell it, his predecessors didn't much know what to make of the new grinning bear in the midst. Clinton had long been applying his famed skills as a policy specialist to the Rus.
