Grace Kennan Warnecke's memoir is about a life lived on the edge of history. Daughter of one of the most influential diplomats of the twentieth century, wife of the scion of a newspaper dynasty and mother of the youngest owner of a major league baseball team, Grace eventually found her way out from under the shadows of others to forge a dynamic career of her own.

Born in Latvia, Grace lived in seven countries and spoke five languages before the age of eleven. As a child, she witnessed Hitler's march into Prague, attended a Soviet school during World War II, and sailed the seas with her father. In a multi-faceted career, she worked as a professional photographer, television producer, and book editor and critic. Eventually, like her father, she became a Russian specialist, but of a very different kind. She accompanied Ted Kennedy and his family to Russia, escorted Joan Baez to Moscow to meet with dissident Andrei Sakharov, and hosted Josef Stalin's daughter on the family farm after Svetlana defected to the United States. While running her own consulting company in Russia, she witnessed the breakup of the Soviet Union, and later became director of a women's economic empowerment project in a newly independent Ukraine.

Daughter of the Cold Waris a tale of all these adventures and so much more. This compelling and evocative memoir allows readers to follow Grace's amazing path through life - a whirlwind journey of survival, risk, and self-discovery through a kaleidoscope of many countries, historic events, and fascinating people.

10/10 – I’ve Already Bought Three!
Color: Black, Color: Black
I absolutely love this frother. It works in multiple ways and makes the perfect creamy blend every morning with my protein and collagen. It’s powerful, easy to use, and the charging stand is super convenient. I loved it so much that I purchased one for myself, one for my mom, and one for my best friend’s mom. What really impressed me was the customer service. Mine stopped working at full strength, and they walked me through troubleshooting. When that didn’t fix the issue, they immediately sent me a replacement. That level of support makes a huge difference. Highly recommend — I’ll definitely be gifting more of these!

Stopped working in 4 months
Color: Black
It’s hard to find a whisker that has good reviews. I was hopeful with this one because I wanted multiple attachments and speeds. When I received it I was close to returning it because the attachments were hard to take off and very fragile. I should have returned it at that point because 4 months later Ive missed the return window. I did not use often and if I did it would have broken sooner. All of the sudden it stopped spinning. I recharged it overnight and it didn’t help. Of the three speeds, non work except the middle speed that spins at a wonky pace, and turns off randomly. It’s garbage.

Good mixer and good customer service!
Color: Black
We were really enjoying this frother, one day it turned on and smoked a little and wouldn’t turn off; we contacted the seller and they sent a replacement immediately, had it within a week! Very good customer service.
