"A masterful study of American diplomacy. Quandt's cogent analysis of the role of crises in defining the agenda for a succession of American presidents is built on new and original evidence.

It is an enduring study of American leadership in a troubled and important part of the world."—Janice Gross Stein, University of Toronto
