About the Book

These insightful essays, editorials, personal commentaries, and reports on foreign affairs first appeared in the online journal American Diplomacy (www.americandiplomacy.org) between 1996 and 2008. As co-founder and editor of that journal, Henry Mattox addressed contemporary issues, expressing opinions and judgments and recounting experiences drawn from his service as a career Foreign Service officer and, later, as a senior lecturer in American and diplomatic history.

The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training has included the book in its Memoirs and Occasional Papers Series.
