Publisher's Synopsis

This complete revision looks at American foreign policy from 1938 to, roughly, the end of the first Reagan administration in 1984. It revises the coverage of postwar American foreign policy in the light of recent scholarship and current events - for example the Lebanon invasion by Marines in the mid-1950s receives increased coverage in the light of the American debacle there in 1983.

About the Publisher

Penguin Books

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
