the name of the book in Russian isn't ""In Confidence" but ""Higly Confidential,"" which is English - not a lame translation from English into Russian and back.
The reading is heavy Communist style report of everything that can be told about this very long and difficult period in world tension between the two world powers. However, the book is important material for the student and the scholar and reflects loyally the image the Soviets were trying to put across in those days - and a reflection of post Soviet assessments of a still subservient diplomat of very high rank to his past career.
This is a significant book which throws much light on the Soviet government and the Politburo's projection of a supremely self-confident and powerful Soviet Union against the United States.
