In February 1945, as World War II neared its end, three world leaders-Franklin D. Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, and Joseph Stalin-met in the seaside town of Yalta to decide the fate of a shattered world. What unfolded in those critical days would redraw borders, divide Europe, and ignite the Cold War. But behind the grand diplomacy was a more intimate and tragic truth: President Roosevelt was dying.
Yalta: Roosevelt's Final Diplomacy and the Dawn of the Cold War is a gripping exploration of how illness, exhaustion, and human vulnerability shaped one of the most important conferences in modern history. Weakened by congestive heart failure, Roosevelt arrived at Yalta a shadow of the man who had led America through the Great Depression and most of the war. As Stalin pressed for control of Eastern Europe, and Churchill pushed back, Roosevelt-too tired to fight every battle-made decisions that would echo for decades.
Through vivid storytelling and meticulous research, this book reveals the hidden drama behind the diplomacy: a leader's final mission, quiet compromises made under pressure, and the unintended consequences that carved the Iron Curtain across Europe.
For readers of Erik Larson, Robert Dallek, and Cold War history enthusiasts, this is a powerful reminder that even the greatest moments of statecraft are shaped by the deeply human.
