Anna Roosevelt, Sarah Churchill, and Kathleen Harriman were glamorous, fascinating young women who accompanied their renowned fathers to this historic gathering with Stalin. The Yalta Conference, held in February 1945, was a tense week-long endeavor as Franklin Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, and Joseph Stalin aimed to agree on an end to the war and broker post-war peace.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn her book, Daughters of Yalta, Catherine Katz delves into the dramatic story of these three young women who traveled with their fathers to the Yalta conference. Each of them was bound by fierce ambition and intertwined romances that powerfully colored these crucial days.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKathleen Harriman, at the age of twenty-seven, was a champion skier, war correspondent, and the daughter of US Ambassador to Russia Averell Harriman. She played a crucial role as her father's translator and arranged many of the fine details of the conference. Sarah Churchill, an actress-turned-RAF officer, was devoted to her brilliant father, who relied on her astute political mind. FDR's only daughter, Anna, was chosen over Eleanor Roosevelt to accompany the president to Yalta. She arrived there holding her father's most damaging secret.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDaughters of Yalta offers a remarkable account of the significant role these women played in a political maelstrom and the shaping of a post-war world. It sheds light on the behind-the-scenes female achievement and the complex relationships between fathers and daughters as they worked together to navigate one of the most precarious periods of recent history. Through their experiences, these women demonstrated resilience, strength, and a deep understanding of the political landscape, leaving a lasting impact on the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 322g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 198 x 130 x 30 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780008299750\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Catherine Grace Katz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44097920794874,"sku":"9780008299750","price":10.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/daughters-of-yalta-the-churchills-roosevelts-and-harrimans-a-story-of-love-and-war-3","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
