He also served in Athens, Delhi, Hamburg, Warsaw and Washington; negotiated with Russians in Kabul and Prague; and was a Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations.
Mr. Ober describes the policies he advanced; the ambassadors and officials with whom he served; and the friends he and his wife Liz made behind the Iron Curtain. He discusses Nixon and Kissinger’s “détente”; their neglect of U.S. families divided by Soviet restrictions; Brezhnev’s era of stagnation; and Gorbachev’s reforms.ver menos
