This is an amazing book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The American Encounter: The United States and the Making of the Modern World Essays from 75 Years of Foreign Affairs (Hardcover)
This is an amazing book! Imagine been taken on a ride through the twentieth century by the people who made it and wrote about it at the time -- Nikolai Bukharin, Henry Stimson, Kissinger, Margaret Mead, Alexander Solzhenitsyn. All the articles are interesting, many are just dazzling. You go from inter-war isolation to World War II to the Cold War to Vietnam to the collapse of communism to today. The last section -- of essays from the 1990s -- puts you right in place to understand the global trends of the next century. And the book has great photographs. It will prove a continuing pleasure to own this book
