Editorial Reviews:
Review:"This book may well be not only a most excellent memoir but the single most valuable political book written by an American in the 20th century--because of its instructiveness. It is in this respect that, for example, these Kennan memoirs surpass even Harold Nicolson's diplomatic work....For it is not only because of Kennan's acquaintance with great events, institutions, persons, and because of his acute insight into them, that these memoirs are exceptional: it is because of their frequent exposition of a political philosophy, the range and the depth of which go far beyond Nicolson's urbane and throughtful attempts to remind his countrymen of the realities of international affairs."
John Lukacs, New Republic, 10/28/67
Review:"A most unconventional memoir by current standards. No gossip. No secrets. Mostly ideas, beautifully honed....It records the journey of a most moral, sensitive and thougthful observer through wartime Europe [to Washington]....Highlights are the incidental but suspenseful tales of the perils of policy-making in the United States Government and the discomfiting demonstrations of the burdens that our politics impose on men of intelligence and integrity. The glimpses of life in Hitler's Berlin and Stalin's Moscow are all to brief, though graphic. The portraits of other men, from William C. Bullitt, the first American ambassador to the Soviet Union, to General Goerge C. Marshall, are even briefer, deft, but confined by a limited view."
Max Frankel, New York Times Book Review, 10/29/67
