Item description from seller

Cloth hardcover, translated from the Russian, 341 pages, NOT ex-library. No ISBN. Faint gentle yellowing on endpapers and first/last pages, else interior is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of stamps, firmly bound. Old price in pen inside the rear board. Age-toned boards' edges. Dust jacket shows rubbing and tiny nicks to the upper and lower spine edges, slightly faded spine. -- This compilation presents official documents from three pivotal World War II summits involving the Allied leaders: the Tehran Conference (November-December 1943), the Yalta Conference (February 1945), and the Potsdam Conference (July-August 1945). Published in Moscow by Progress Publishers, the main state-run foreign-language press of the USSR, the volume offers the official Soviet selection of these historical records. The book contains English translations of communiqués, protocols, and agreements between Joseph Stalin, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Winston Churchill. The section on Tehran focuses on coordinating military strategy against Nazi Germany, particularly the opening of a second front in Europe, and initial discussions on the post-war order. The Yalta documents detail plans for Germany's unconditional surrender, its division into occupation zones, the founding of the United Nations, and the significant accords on Eastern Europe, including Poland's borders and the repatriation of Soviet citizens. The Potsdam materials document the leadership transition, with Harry S. Truman and Clement Attlee replacing Roosevelt and Churchill respectively. These texts cover the administration of defeated Germany (reparations, de-Nazification), the Potsdam Declaration demanding Japan's unconditional surrender, and the clear emergence of frictions that would define the Cold War. As a primary source collection curated by the USSR, this book is essential for understanding not only the events themselves but also how they were presented by one of the key participants. It is a vital resource for historians and students of international relations.…
