Synopsis

The United States is in the process of developing a new foreign policy to meet the changing political, economic, and technological situations throughout the world. This book is a history of the making of a new foreign policy after World War II and analyzes how a bipartisan policy was achieved and lasted until the end of the Cold War in 1991. By reprinting her out-of-print book published by Westview Press in 1991, author Ellen Collier makes available a handbook on building a bipartisan foreign policy.

About the Author

Chandler B. Gillam, a farmer from Byron, New York, enlisted immediately when President Lincoln called for troops to put down the Confederate rebellion. W. L. Hicks, a clerk from Canandaigua, New York, also signed up eagerly. They served in the 28th New York Volunteers till the regiment mustered out in June 1863. After the war they returned to their former occupations. Gillam’s letters and Hicks’ diary were edited by Ellen Clodfelter Collier, a former Specialist in U.S. Foreign Policy at the Congressional Research Service of the Library of Congress. She is a graduate of Ohio State, American University, and the National War College.
