Cold War

Beginning at the end of World War II, The Cold War recounts growing division between the United States and the Soviet Union and the series of international crises from the Berlin Airlift and Cuban Missile Crisis to Nixon's visit to China and the fall of the Berlin Wall. It also takes a close look at the home front, tracing the impact of international realpolitik on domestic policies through heated presidential elections, controversial congressional hearings and spy trials, and antiwar and disarmament movements.
