Jonathan Dimbleby

Three days before the US election, bestselling historian and hugely respected broadcaster Jonathan Dimbleby discusses his new book, Endgame 44: How Stalin Won the War, and how the events of 1944 laid the foundations for the Cold War and current tensions between Putin and The West.

Find out how sophisticated new forms of deception and ruthless Partisan warfare shifted the Soviets’ fortunes, how their triumphs effectively gave Stalin authority to occupy Eastern Europe and dictate the terms of the post-war settlement, and what that means for Ukraine and broader geopolitics in 2024. Chaired by Festival President, Dame Fiona Reynolds.
