Hitler y Chamberlain en Munich en 1938; Roosevelt, Churchill y Stalin en Yalta en 1945; Kennedy y Jruschov en Viena en 1961; Nixon y Bréznev en Moscú en 1972; Carter, Sadat y Begin en Camp David en 1978; Gorvachov y Reagan en Ginebra en 1985. Seis cumbres políticas que modelaron el siglo XX, desde el estallido de la segunda guerra mundial hasta el final de la guerra fría, pasando por la repartición de Europa en la posguerra, la extrema tensión nuclear entre las superpotencias que tuvo su punto álgido en la crisis de los misiles de Cuba, y los intentos de apaciguar el polvorín de Oriente Próximo.   Seis momentos históricos trascendentales, seis escenificaciones del poder de la diplomacia que David Reynolds relata en este apasionante libro, indagando en cómo los líderes se enfrentaban a sus opositores, jugaban sus cartas y se veían sometidos a enormes presiones físicas y emocionales durante unos encuentros cuyos resultados podrían significar la vida o la muerte de millones de personas.   ?Un lúcido y riguroso relato de las grandes gestas diplomáticas desde Munich a Camp David... Reynolds ofrece reveladores datos sobre las extravagancias y capacidades negociadoras de los grandes líderes?, Kirkus Reviews.   ?Reynolds tiene la capacidad de hacer que el lector se sienta testigo directo de las cumbres que aparecen en el libro?, Financial Times.   ?Muy bien documentado, magníficamente escrito e inteligente?, The Spectator.   ?Un libro admirable..., un trabajo muy original?, Times Literary Supplement.
