Potsdam: The End of World War II and the Remaking of Europe by Michael Neiberg
After Germany’s defeat in World War II, the victorious Allies faced the daunting task of negotiating a lasting peace. On July 17, 1945, Harry Truman, Winston Churchill, and Joseph Stalin gathered in a quiet suburb of Berlin to discuss, as Churchill put it, “the gravest matters in the world.” Award-winning historian Michael Neiberg vividly captures the delegates’ personalities and discusses their dramatic debates over how to end the war. A book signing will follow the program.
