"This is an indispensable book for understanding the threat our country faces from Vladimir Putin's Russia. McFaul is a candid and insightful guide to the history, personalities, and politics that continue to shape one of America's most consequential relationships." --Hillary Rodham Clinton, former Secretary of State under Barack Obama (2009-2013) "Mike McFaul has lived history. In this terrific book, he recounts a pivotal time in U.S.-Russian relations, bringing the perspective of a central participant and one of America's finest scholars of Russian politics. This book will be valued by students, experts, historians and diplomats for years to come. It is a good read and an invaluable contribution at a crucial time." ---Condoleezza Rice, former Secretary of State under George W. Bush (2005-2009) "As both a first-hand observer and a key participant in many of the recent events that have shaped US-Russia relations, Ambassador McFaul has an important story to tell. From Cold War to Hot Peace is a gripping and intensely personal account of one of the most complex and consequential geopolitical developments of our time." -Madeleine Albright, former Secretary of State under Bill Clinton (1997-2001) "Mike McFaul gives us a broad, thoughtful analysis of a critical shift in world affairs.

Synopsis
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From the diplomat Putin wants to interrogate--and has banned from Russia--comes a revelatory inside account of US-Russia relations across the three decades following the Cold War. In 2008, when Michael McFaul was asked to leave his perch at Stanford and join an unlikely presidential campaign, he had no idea that he would find himself at the beating heart of one of today's most contentious and consequential international relationships. As President Barack Obama's adviser on Russian affairs, McFaul helped craft the United States' policy known as "reset" that fostered new and unprecedented collaboration between the two countries. And then, as US ambassador to Russia from 2012 to 2014, he had a front-row seat when this fleeting, hopeful moment crumbled with Vladimir Putin's return to the presidency. This riveting inside account combines history and memoir to tell the full story of US-Russia relations from the fall of the Soviet Union to the new rise of the hostile, paranoid Russian president. From the first days of McFaul's ambassadorship, the Kremlin actively sought to discredit and undermine him, hassling him with tactics that included dispatching protesters to his front gates, slandering him on state media, and tightly surveilling him, his staff, and his family. From Cold War to Hot Peace is an essential account of the most consequential global confrontation of our time., From the Stanford Kremlinologist who served as U.S. ambassador to Russia from 2012 to 2014, and has since been sanctioned by Vladimir Putin, comes a revelatory account of U.S.-Russia relations from 1989 to the present, told through his experience working for President Barack Obama and witnessing the tightening of Putin's grip firsthand., NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From the diplomat Putin wants to interrogate--and has banned from Russia--a revelatory, inside account of U.S.-Russia relations from 1989 to the present "A fascinating and timely account of the current crisis in the relationship between Russia and the United States." -- New York Times Book Review Putin would need an enemy, and he turned to the most reliable one in Russia's recent history: the United States and then, by extension, me.
