A propos de cet article

viii, 24.7, [1]8 pages. The dust jacket is in a plastic sleeve and is price clipped. David Kraslow graduated from the University of Miami (Fla.) and was a Nieman Fellow at Harvard University. He joined the Miami Herald in 1948, reported sports and city and county government, winning two state awards, before moving to the Washington Bureau in 1956. Stuart H.

Kraslow and Loory argued that the lack of coordination between military action and diplomatic efforts was a primary reason for the prolonged conflict.
