On the morning of August 13, 1961, the residents of East Berlin found themselves cut off from family, friends and jobs in the West by a tangle of barbed wire that ruthlessly cut a city of four million in two. Within days the barbed-wire entanglement would undergo an extraordinary metamorphosis: it became an imposing 103-mile-long wall guarded by three hundred watchtowers. A physical manifestation of the struggle between Soviet Communism and American capitalism—totalitarianism and freedom—that would stand for nearly thirty years, the Berlin Wall was the high-risk fault line between East and West on which rested the fate of all humanity. Many brave people risked their lives to overcome this lethal barrier, and some paid the ultimate price.

In this captivating work, sure to be the definitive history on the subject, Frederick Taylor weaves together official history, archival materials, and personal accounts to tell the complete story of the Wall's rise and fall, from the postwar political tensions that created a divided Berlin to the internal and external pressures that led to the Wall's demise. In addition, he explores the geopolitical ramifications as well as the impact the wall had on ordinary lives that is still felt today. For the first time the entire world faced the threat of imminent nuclear apocalypse, a fear that would be eased only when the very people the Wall had been built to imprison breached it on the historic night of November 9, 1989.

Gripping and authoritative, The Berlin Wall is the first comprehensive account of a divided city and its people in a time when the world seemed to stand permanently on the edge of destruction.

《柏林墙》:柏林墙背道而行,苏联是一错再错 无可否认,柏林墙是德国历史上永久的伤疤。所谓的看待柏林墙修筑的正确面这样的说法是非常可笑的。柏林墙的建立,本来就是一个错。而在这个错误发生之前,苏联早就犯了个严重的错误,柏林墙只不过是一错再错。 ...

阿登纳和艾哈德一手创造的“经济奇迹”使西德对东德人的吸引力急剧增加。尽管1957年通过的东德法律规定,未经允许逃离东德者将被处以3年的监禁,但截止到1961年,陆续有近300万东德人逃亡西方,占东德总人口的18%,其中大多数是医生、教授、工程师和政府官员。为了制止外逃...

柏林墙倒下了,东德人终于获得了他们梦寐以求的自由,然而,类似的悲剧却并没有在这里地球上结束,我们看到在远隔德国万里重洋的另外一个国家,依旧有一堵用来对付自己的百姓的墙巍峨耸立着,唯一的区别是,大多数人看不到甚至不知道这堵墙。

so far so good

像小说一样紧张生动,并且充满了身为英国佬的必要的自嘲。频频为这人间苦难撒热泪,幸亏结局是个幸福结局——总之还是哭了。
