A college course anthology of conflicting scholarly interpretations of recent American foreign policy — a standard format in the Dorsey Series, designed for undergraduate and graduate political science and history courses. Lawrence S. Kaplan (1924–2021) was one of America's foremost diplomatic historians, specializing in NATO, Jefferson-era foreign policy, and the early American republic. He taught for decades at Kent State University and was a founding member of the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations. A scholarly anthology of conflicting interpretations of recent American foreign policy, edited by Lawrence S. Kaplan — one of the most respected diplomatic historians of the twentieth century, whose work on NATO and early American foreign relations set the standard for the field. Collecting essays by leading scholars presenting divergent views on the major foreign policy decisions of the postwar era, this Dorsey Series anthology was a widely assigned undergraduate and graduate text throughout the late 1960s and early 1970s. An exceptionally clean copy — unwritten and unmarked throughout — of a book that was almost universally read with pen in hand by its student users. A solid find for collectors of Cold War era academic history, political science course material, and the Dorsey Series in American History.…
