Excerpt from John Foster Dulles: A ReappraisalMr. Dulles's papers are understandably voluminous, and it will probably be several years before his definitive biography is pub lished. But so much material is already available in various forms that the problem is what to omit rather than what to look for. I emphasize this because I do not want anyone to start by thinking that this book is intended to do the work of Mr. Dulles's ultimate biographers. It is what it says - a reappraisal of Mr. Dulles's record so far as we can see it now. Some day, when the actors have all left the stage and the historians alone can read their lines, a different kind of book will emerge. Until then, I think this one can lay fair claim to having a valid contribution to make.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
