Americans may not recognize his name, but the actions of Hans-Dietrich Genscher, Germany's foreign minister from 1974-1989, have had an enormous impact on the world we live in today. In this sweeping memoir, Genscher illuminates such seminal events as the destruction of the Berlin Wall and the reunification of Germany, the dismantling of the Eastern Bloc, and the creation of the European Union.From the perspective of the ultimate insider, Genscher describes the thawing of the Cold War--including his own behind-the-scenes conversations with Mikhail Gorbachev and other world leaders; the strategies he developed that led to the emotionally charged demolition of the Berlin Wall; and the heated meetings between international leaders as the face of Europe changed. His candid portraits of Reagan, Thatcher, Mitterand, and Gorbachev, and his eyewitness accounts of what really goes on behind closed doors, show a side of international affairs rarely seen by the American public.A number-one bestseller in Germany, Rebuilding a House Divided is must reading for anyone interested in politics, diplomacy, and the complex relationship between the United States and Europe.
