"... interesting for its detached reflections on U.S. government workings during [the Cold War].... [Garthoff] continues to set an honorable and challenging example for his peers." —Philip Zelikow, Foreign Affairs|"Garthoff has certainly seen it all, being an insider almost from the start and ending up as a highly placed academic in the Brookings Institution as the Berlin Wall came down.... Students of the Cold War and the US policy process will find much of interest here as Garthoff describes his life at the top of the American foreign policy establishment." —Mike Bowker, University of East Anglia, Political Studies|"[A Journey Through the Cold War] is inextricably drawn to the events that defined the Cold War. Perhaps no other author has been as singularly successful in capturing these events as Ambassador Raymond Garthoff.... by far one of the most personal and thoroughly credible accounts of this period." —Robert H. Taylor, Editor, Parameters/ Colonel U.S. Army, Retired, Parameters, 1/1/2003|"... a unique book.... [Garthoff] does a very good job of capturing what it was like to analyze intelligence or to negotiate an arms control treaty [during the Cold War].... This book will be of great interest to those... who seek to understand what it was like to live through the conflict." —Beth Fischer, University of Toronto, International Journal|"In 'A Journey Through the Cold War' [Garthoff] offers an illuminating and crsiply written account of his own Cold War career, which never deviated far from the central loci of U.S. decision-making." —Susan L. Carruthers, Rutgers University, Slavonic and East European Review(SEER)|"Scrupulous reporting and rigorous analysis make this a fascinating and valuable resource on the history of the Cold War." — Foreign Service Journal
