Default Turning Point: the Bomb and the Cold War

I highly recommend the Netflix docu-series, Turning Point: the Bomb and the Cold War.

https://www.netflix.com/title/81614129

It's very thorough and well-produced- lots of historical footage, interviews with esteemed scholars and historical figures. Putin's invasion of Ukraine in 2022 is the brief prologue and then it begins tracing the Cold War to its roots in the Russian Revolution in 1917 forward to the present day.

I've been studying the Cold War since I was a teenager in the late 1980s (followed by a university history degree, and teacher of history to this day) and I'm learning something new with every episode.

If you enjoy this, there's another Turning Point series on 9-11 and the War on Terror, also excellent.
