In November of 1982, ten-year-old Samantha Smith of Manchester, Maine was terrified by the idea of nuclear war. Following her mother's suggestion, the fifth-grader wrote a one page letter to Yuri Andropov, the newly-appointed leader of the Soviet Union, pleading for peace between their two countries. What happened next was straight out of a fairy tale. After excerpts from Samantha's letter were published in a communist newspaper, the small-town girl who loved animals and softball became a famous international figure and promoter of world peace, appearing in newspapers and on talk shows, and receiving thousands of letters from around the world. At the invitation of Andropov, Samantha and her parents spent two weeks during the summer of 1983 touring the Soviet Union, and were followed by reporters and cameras every step of the way. Samantha Smith, with her big blue eyes and dimpled grin, soon became America's sweetheart and a friend to the Soviets as she toured Lenin's tomb, attended the Moscow Circus, and enjoyed swimming and singing at Camp Artek. Samantha returned home to a hero's welcome complete with a parade, but just when her life was getting back to normal, Samantha found herself in the spotlight once again. First, the globetrotting young girl was a special guest speaker at a peace symposium in Kobe, Japan, and then she became the host of her own Disney Channel television special in which she travelled to Washington D.C. to interview Democratic presidential candidates. Before starting seventh grade, Samantha was offered the chance to audition for a weekly tv series, and won the role of Robert Wagner's daughter on a new television show called Lime Street. In August of 1985, 13-year-old Samantha and her father Arthur were flying home during a break in filming when their plane suddenly crashed less than a mile from the airport, instantly killing everyone on board. The entire world mourned the loss of Samantha Smith, the "littlest diplomat." Samantha's mother Jane formed the Samantha Smith Foundation in order to carry on her daughter's legacy. Many tributes have been made in both the Soviet Union and the United States to honor the memory of Samantha Smith, including a mountain peak, a bronze statue, a rare diamond, a postage stamp, and even an elementary school. The summer of 2018 will mark the 35th anniversary of Samantha's historic trip.

In 1982, amid the nuclear paranoia that engulfed the US and the Soviet Union, Samantha Smith, a fifth grader from Manchester, Maine, wrote a letter to the Kremlin asking the Soviet leader if he was going to start a war. When Pravda, the biggest Soviet newspaper, published her letter—and Samantha received an unprecedented invitation to visit the Soviet Union —her family embarked on a historic journey that helped transform the hearts and minds of two nations on a collision course. Today, a nuclear war seems like a possibility once again. The story of a young American girl’s letter to the Soviet leader and her innocent curiosity about the other side of the Iron Curtain holds an important lesson for every American: to never stop questioning the status quo, and to recognize that the responsibility for the preservation of peace is not only the purveyance of the government. America’s Youngest Ambassador provides insights into a forgotten era and has an important message for young people who strive to be more involved in facilitating change, both locally and worldwide. Juxtaposing Samantha’s narrative with that of her own childhood in the Soviet Union in the 1980s, Lena Nelson explores the consequences of government propaganda on both sides of the ocean and reveals how Samantha Smith’s journey in the summer of 1983 helped melt the hearts of the Soviets and thaw the ice of the Cold War. Drawing on interviews conducted in both the US and Russia with key players in the events of those days, among them Samantha’s mother Jane, Nelson blends storytelling, anecdotes, and analysis of Soviet-American relations to tell the story of this unprecedented moment in history.

'A hugely absorbing first novel from a writer with a fluid, vivid style and a rare knack for balancing the pleasure of entertainment with the deeper gratification of insight. More, please' Maggie Shipstead, The New York Times Book Review (Editors' Choice) 'Holt's beguiling debut... in which there is no difference between personal and political betrayal, vividly conjures the anxieties of the Cold War without ever lapsing into nostalgia' The New Yorker Sarah Zuckerman and Jennifer Jones are best friends in an upscale part of Washington, D.C., in the politically charged 1980s. Sarah is the shy, wary product of an unhappy home: her father abandoned the family to return to his native England; her agoraphobic mother is obsessed with fears of nuclear war. Jenny is an all-American girl who has seemingly perfect parents. With Cold War rhetoric reaching a fever pitch in 1982, the ten-year-old girls write letters to Soviet premier Yuri Andropov asking for peace. But only Jenny's letter receives a response, and Sarah is left behind when her friend accepts the Kremlin's invitation to visit the USSR and becomes an international media sensation. The girls' icy relationship still hasn't thawed when Jenny and her parents die tragically in a plane crash in 1985. Ten years later, Sarah is about to graduate from college when she receives a mysterious letter from Moscow suggesting that Jenny's death might have been a hoax. She sets off to the former Soviet Union in search of the truth, but the more she delves into her personal Cold War history, the harder it is to separate facts from propaganda. You Are One of Them is a taut, moving debut about the ways in which we define ourselves against others and the secrets we keep from those who are closest to us. In her insightful forensic of a mourned friendship, Holt illuminates the long lasting sting of abandonment and the measures we take to bring back those we have lost.
