NEW COLD WAR Hardcover

"New Cold Wars: China's Rise, Russia's Invasion, and America's Struggle to Defend the West" by Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist David E. Sanger is a gripping and deeply reported account of the escalating geopolitical tensions that have plunged the United States into simultaneous, high-stakes confrontations with Xi Jinping's China and Vladimir Putin's Russia. Challenging the post-Cold War fantasy of a Western-led global order, Sanger reveals how these two vastly different adversaries have pushed back, engaging in a complex struggle for military, economic, political, and technological supremacy. Drawing on extensive interviews with top officials across five presidential administrations, intelligence agencies, and foreign governments, the book offers a crucial first-draft history of America's return to superpower conflict, from the battlefields of Ukraine to the tech hubs of Taiwan, and explores the critical choices facing a politically divided America in a world where nations are increasingly pressured to choose sides.
