About This Item
New York: Washington Inst Press/Paragon House, 1989. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7. Type: Hard Back First Printing. Hardcover and Dust Jacket in FINE Condition. Mylar jacket cover. 427 pages. 6.25x9.5" tall. Burgundy cloth gilt titled, very clean and unmarked; heavy, tight and solid book. Interior also fine. The primary issue of American foreign policy from 1968-1976 was a response to an increasing Soviet military power. As a result of Watergate, Kissinger began to take over foreign policy matters more and more. This book is largely an account of how Kissinger was able to move the US away from Nixon's traditional containment policy to "tri-lateralism" and a greater dependency on collective security organizations. He also argues that Watergate was a set-up to oust Nixon. 1989, Washington Inst Press/Paragon House.
