The United States and the Origins of the Cold War, 1941-1947 is a full-scale reassessment of United States policy toward the Soviet Union during and immediately after World War II, based on recently-opened sources. It is the first major effort to move beyond the revisionist interpretations which have characterized most of the recent writing on this subject. - Jacket flap.
