Richard H. Immerman is professor and chair of history at Temple University and director of its Center for the Study of Force and Diplomacy.
This volume presents a well-documented survey of Dulles as
President Eisenhower's secretary of state.
*CHOICE*
With lucid prose and command of the primary documents and secondary
sources, Richard Immerman gives us a masterful acount of John
Foster Dulles, his diplomacy, and his relations with Eisenhower.
Not the least of his contributions is showing that Dulles was
neither a tool of the president nor his leader, but rather his
sometimes antagonistic partner.
*Robert Jervis, Adlai E. Stevenson Professor of International
Relations, Columbia University*
John Foster Dulles is a superb biography of a complex and most
important person, a fascinating analysis of the pivotal
Eisenhower-Dulles relationship, and a masterful account of U.S.
power and diplomacy in the 1950s.
