Book summary


A New York Times Notable Book for 2002.


Media reviews


"Talbott's hack days serve him well in THE RUSSIA HAND, which reads smoothly and contains some fine comic moments; but in these pages the diplomat often trumps the reporter. Most of the bile and the West Wing dope has been suppressed in favor of flattery....Talbott's lively and personal account of his tremendous fun in helping run the world is not a revelation on the order of the Khrushchev memoirs that he translated, but a warts-and-all valentine to his charismatic friend of thirty-four years and the clubby circle who shared the author's experience of a paradoxical presidency."
