A gripping historical account of President Ronald Reagan's battle to
end the Cold War, adapted for young readers from the book by #1
bestselling author and Fox News Channel anchor Bret Baier
On May 31, 1988, President Ronald Reagan stood before a packed audience
at Moscow State University. He delivered a speech that would go down in
history, as it was the first time an American president had given an
address about human rights on Russian soil. The importance of this
speech was largely overlooked at the time, yet the following year, in
November 1989, the Berlin Wall fell and the Soviet Union began to
disintegrate, leaving the United States the sole superpower on the world
stage.
Adapted for a younger audience, and including an 8-page insert of
historical photographs, Three Days in Moscow reveals the president's
critical and often misunderstood role in orchestrating a successful,
peaceful ending to the Cold War.
This page-turning, accessible account sheds light on America's current
place in the world while introducing young readers to one of America's
most remarkable leaders--and the unique qualities that allowed him to
succeed with America's most dangerous enemy, when his predecessors had
fallen short.
