In June 1961, Nikita Khrushchev called Berlin "the most dangerous place on earth." He knew what he was talking about.

Berlin 1961 offers a gripping, journalistic look at one of the tensest moments of the Cold War — the year the Berlin Wall went up. Frederick Kempe examines the political missteps, rising tensions, and human stories behind the crisis that divided a city and reshaped global politics. Blending history with vivid storytelling, Kempe follows Kennedy, Khrushchev, and the people of Berlin as they navigate decisions and events that could have pushed the world to the brink.
