Back cover
520 This book presents and interprets archival records of the
meetings between Mikhail Gorbachev and George W. Bush
between 1989 and 1991, including transcripts of
conversations between top leaders on the rapid and
monumental events of the final days of the Cold War.
Particularly effective interlocutors were the foreign
ministers Eduard Shevardnadze and James Baker, especially
interesting when they interacted directly with Bush or
Gorbachev. The documents were obtained from the Gorbachev
Foundation and the Russian State Archives and from the
United States government through requests under the
Freedom of Information Act. Taking place at a time of
revolutionary change in Eastern Europe, stimulated in part
by Gorbachev and by Eastern Europeans (the Solidarity
movement, dissidents, reform communists), the Malta Summit
of 1989 and subsequent meetings helped defuse any
potential for superpower conflict. Each of the five
summits is covered in a separate chapter, introduced by an
essay that places the transcripts in historical context.
The anthology offers a fascinating glimpse into the
relationship that defined the last, waning years of the
Cold War--a unique record of these historic, highest-level
conversations that effectively brought it to a close. The
quality and scope of the dialogue between these world
leaders was unprecedented and is likely never to be
repeated.
