Product Description
Part biography and part diplomatic history, this book focuses on Henry Cabot Lodge`s ambassadorship to South Vietnam from 1963 to 1964. Based on Lodge`s collected papers (including an unpublished memoir), as well as on previously unavailable U.S. Saigon Embassy reports and on interviews with former U.S. officials, the book examines the constraints and possibilities inherent in the Vietnam situation during Lodge`s first ambassadorship and reveals the role he played in shaping President Lyndon Johnson`s 1965 decision to commit U.S. troops to the war.
