The Wages of Globalism: Lyndon Johnson and the Limits of American Power by H. W. Brands
Requirements: .PDF reader, 17.2mb
Overview: One episode dominates the memory of Lyndon Johnson’s presidency: the Vietnam War. The war has so darkened Johnson’s reputation that it is difficult for many to recall his policies in a positive light– especially his foreign policy. Now historian H.W. Brands offers a fresh look at Johnson’s handling of international relations, putting Vietnam in the context of the many crises he confronted and the outdated policies of global containment he was expected to uphold. The result is a fascinating portrait of a master politician at work, maneuvering through a series of successes that made his ultimate failure in Vietnam all the more tragic.
