“A fascinating read, and a great insight into the life and mind of [Harriman], as well as to how Diplomacy worked.”—ARRSE “Kathy Harriman’s wartime letters provide a behind-the-curtains peek at some of the greatest moments of World War Two. This skilfully edited volume is both deliciously entertaining and endlessly informative. A pure joy to read.”—Giles Milton, author of The Stalin Affair “Geoffrey Roberts offers a fascinating portrayal of a bright, sharp, and charming young woman coming of age on the forefront of history. Through Kathleen Harriman's sparkling commentary framed by Roberts’ keen editorial pen, we see the human side of the war's most consequential days in London and Moscow as shaped by the giants of the era—with whom Miss Harriman could more than hold her own!”—Catherine Grace Katz, author of The Daughters of Yalta
