About this listen

Discover the remarkable life of Nikita Khrushchev....

Nikita Khrushchev came to power in the aftermath of the notorious Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin’s death. Although Khrushchev came on the scene with aggression and fury (the world would never forget how he declared that he would bury the West), he was ultimately a much more peaceful Soviet leader than Stalin ever was. Even when the Cold War was at its most dangerous point during the Cuban Missile Crisis, it was, in many ways, the measured restraint of Khrushchev which helped to avoid unleashing nuclear Armageddon.

This book examines the life and career of one of history’s most misunderstood leaders, Nikita Khrushchev, in full.

Discover a plethora of topics such as

  • Early Life in Ukraine
  • Khrushchev during World War II
  • Recrimination and Blame
  • From Sputnik to the Cuban Missile Crisis
  • Khrushchev’s Great Decade
  • Retirement: “Grandfather Cries”
  • And much more!
