Book review revives debate over The Wise Men and the postwar order
Original: Six men. One postwar world. The choices they made still echo today. Read my full review of The Wise Men. # books # bookr
A book review of The Wise Men, the classic group portrait of six American statesmen who shaped the postwar world, is drawing attention among history and Cold War readers. The review argues that the choices made by figures like Acheson, Kennan, Harriman, Lovett, McCloy and Bohlen still echo in today's foreign policy debates.
Why now: Renewed interest in Cold War history and how postwar American foreign policy decisions continue to influence present-day geopolitics.
