Críticas:
In his masterly new book, distinguished historian Sir Alistair Horne spotlights the man at the epicenter of the events that shook the decade. (ANDREW ROBERTS)

compelling.. brilliantly analysed... the fascinating story is retold with vigour and shrewdness. (DAVID OWEN DAILY TELEGRAPH - 05.09.09)

"a good idea for a book... a fun and lively book: at its best, it casts new light on the peculiar relationship between Nixon and Kissinger, the ultimate "odd couple". (STEPHEN ROBINSON SUNDAY TIMES - 13.09.09)

an excellent and absorbing book in which he has marshalled a wonderful array of material (SPECTATOR - 10.10.09)

This book, like its author, is amiable and civilised and benefits from Horne's extensive experience... an engaging read from a fine historian about an always interesting subject. It enables us to look fairly impartially into the mouth of a rumbling historical volcano. (CONRAD BLACK STANDPOINT MAGAZINE - 1.09.09)

Despite his ties to Kissinger, however, Horne has not given us a whitewash... well-crafted. (THE CATHOLIC HERALD 25.09.09)
Reseña del editor:

1973 was a seminal year in world history. The outbreak of the 'Yom Kippur War' took both Israel and the US by surprise, the Vietnam War finally ended, it was the year of détente with the Soviet Union, but the US executive was in a state of collapse following Watergate, and the year ended with the muslim initiated energy crisis, which brought the Western world to the brink of economic disaster - a story of deepest relevance today.

1973 was also very much the year of Henry Kissinger, Nixon's National Security advisor and later Secretary of State - possibly the most powerful in American history, running US foreign policy in default of a 'lame duck' president. It was also the year that Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

This book is the biography of Kissinger - the first he has authorised - viewed through the events of this crucial year. A story of his extraordinarily imaginative aims, his near successes, and, as he admits, his ultimate failures.
