Tangled Web: The Making of Foreign Policy in the Nixon Presidency
by By Bundy, William P
Category: Political Science , International Relations , General

His diverse career as editor of Foreign Affairs magazine, and in intelligence and foreign policy positions under several administrations positions Bundy in a unique vantage point to challenge Nixon-Kissinger foreign policy "successes" in regard to establishing relations with China, initiating detente with the USSR, and ending US participation in the Vietnam War. He faults patterns focusing on short-term domestic gains and deceptive tactics many perceived only in a Watergate context. Includes several b&w photographs and maps.
