Great new book by noted historian and scholar Brian Crozier, distinguished visiting fellow at Stanford's Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace. British scholar Crozier, who studied communism and the Soviet Union for over 50 years gives Ronald Reagan, citing his "wisdom and determination", much of the credit for bringing down the "Evil Empire". Historian Crozier rejects the idea that Gorby was responsible, noting that he failed to deter Reagan and failed to get the West to prop up his regime - which was the Soviet plan. Crozier states that Gorby had no intention of breakup and was not a democrat - noting his brutal suppression of the Baltic states just one year prior to the end. The Rise and Fall of the Soviet Empire by Brian Crozier amazon.com Richard Pipes, Baird Research Professor of History, Harvard University "An expert guide to the history of the Communist empire, succinct and objective. As such, it is highly to be recommended to anyone interested in the origins and course of the Cold War." Other books by the estimable Crozier: Crozier, Brian : De Gaulle: The Warrior Crozier, Brian Middleton, Drew: This War Called Peace Crozier, Brian: Los Partidos Comunistas Desde Stalin
