Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The inspiration for the upcoming film Reagan starring Dennis Quaid and directed by Sean McNamara "Combining the skills of great story-telling with his commitment to scholarly detail, Paul Kengor has written an important book that also makes for a fascinating read. The Crusader will not only entertain and inform, it will change minds." -- Peter Schweizer, bestselling author of Blood Money, Red-Handed, and Reagan's War Based on extraordinary research, The Crusader is a major reassessment of Ronald Reagan's lifelong campaign to dismantle the Soviet Empire God and Ronald Reagan made presidential historian Paul Kengor one of the premier chroniclers of the life and career of the 40th president. With The Crusader, Kengor returns with the one book about Reagan that has not been written: the story of his lifelong crusade against communism, and of his dogged--and ultimately triumphant--effort to win the Cold War and overthrow the Soviet Union. Drawing upon reams of newly declassified presidential papers, as well as untapped Soviet media archives and new interviews with key players, Kengor traces Reagan's efforts to target the Soviet Union from his days as governor of California to the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of what he famously dubbed the "Evil Empire." The result is a major revision of US foreign policy history and an enhancement of what historians are only beginning to realize: that Reagan not only wished for the fall of communism, but had a deep and specific understanding of what it would take--and effected dozens of policy shifts that brought the USSR to its heels. The Crusader makes use of key sources from behind the Iron Curtain, including one key memo that implicates a major American liberal politician in a scheme to enlist Soviet premier Yuri Andropov to help defeat Reagan's 1984 reelection bid. Such finds make this compelling presidential biography not just a work of extraordinary history, but a work of explosive revelation. A Lifelong Crusade: Follow Reagan's unwavering, decades-long fight against communism, from his early days in Hollywood to his final years in the White House, all driven by a singular mission to defeat the Soviet system. The Reagan Doctrine in Action: Go beyond theory with a detailed account of the specific policy shifts and strategic decisions Reagan implemented to actively undermine the USSR and bring the Evil Empire to its knees. Declassified Cold War History: Uncover a revised history built on newly declassified presidential papers and, for the first time, untapped Soviet media archives that reveal what Moscow truly thought of the 'crusader.' Explosive Political Revelations: Discover the stunning details of a secret memo that implicates a major American liberal politician in a scheme with Soviet premier Yuri Andropov to interfere in the 1984 presidential election. …

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. "She is a writer and journalist whose voice belongs to the world." -- Gloria Steinem This essay collection from renowned journalist and novelist Slavenka Drakulic, which quickly became a modern (and feminist) classic, draws back the Iron Curtain for a glimpse at the lives of Eastern European women under Communist regimes. Provocative, witty, and intensely personal, How We Survived Communism and Even Laughed cracks open a paradoxical world that through its rejection of capitalism and commoditization ends up fetishizing both. Examining the relationship between material goods and expressions of happiness and individuality in a society where even bananas were an alien luxury, Drakulic homes in on the eradication of female identity, drawing on her own experiences as well as broader cultural observations. Enforced communal housing that allowed for little privacy, the banishment of many time-saving devices, and a focus on manual labor left no room for such bourgeois affectations as cosmetics or clothes, but Drakulic's remarkable exploration of the reality behind the rhetoric reveals that women still went to desperate lengths to feel "feminine." How We Survived Communism and Even Laughed also chronicles the lingering consequences of such regimes. The Berlin Wall may have fallen, but Drakulic's power pieces testify that ideology cannot be dismantled so quickly; a lifetime lived in fear cannot be so easily forgotten.…
