Description: "'Off-the-record' speeches from 1964-1969 by Thomas L. Hughes, Director of Intelligence and Research, Department of State ...Themes were topics deliberately chosen to influence policymakers inside the government, as well as observers outside ... His speeches in many ways anticipated foreign policy developments of the ensuing decades, and foreshadowed developments that have emerged with greater intensity today.  ... These speeches will be of greatest interest today to sophisticated audiences in the fields of history, politics, international relations, national security, law, and bureaucratic enterprise."--Summary from preface.
