Gale Stokes' The Walls Came Tumbling Down Offered One Of The Most Respected Interpretations Of The East European Revolutions Of 1989 For Many Years. It Provides A Sweeping Yet Vivid Narrative Of The Two Decades Of Developments That Led From The Prague Spring Of 1968 To The Collapse Of Communism In 1989. Highlights Of That Narrative Include, Among Other Things, Discussions Of Solidarity And Civil Society In Poland, Charter 77 And The Velvet Revolution In Czechoslovakia, And The Bizarre Regime Of Romania'S Nikolae Ceauescu And His Violent Downfall.
