Overnight, It Became A Powerful Symbol Of The Stark And Bitter Divisions Of The Cold War. The Berlin Wall Was More Than A Symbol, However. For Nearly Thirty Years, It Separated Families, Kept Millions Of People In Virtual Slavery, And Took The Lives Of Many Whose Unquenchable Thirst For Freedom Drove Them To Climb Over, Tunnel Under, Or Sneak Past The Wall. In The Fall Of The Berlin Wall, Author And Conservative Pioneer William F. Buckley Jr. Explains Why The Wall Was Built, Reveals Its Devastating Impact On The Lives Of People On Both Sides, And Provides A Riveting Account Of The Events That Led To The Wall's Destruction And The End Of The Cold War. Buckley Examines The Political, Military, And Human Realities Of Occupied Germany In The Early Years Of The Cold War. He Recounts The Soviets' Repeated Violations Of The Four-power Agreements That Governed The Occupation As They Folded East Germany Into Their Growing Empire, And He Documents The Failure Of Nato - And Successive American Presidents - To Stand Firm Against Soviet Bullying.--jacket.
