Sobre este artículo
Text is clean and unmarked in a square and tight binding. Very slight fading at the extreme top edges of the binding. Previous owners' names written and on a name label on the top outside edge of the front free end paper. DJ has minor wear around the edges. From the front DJ flap, "This is David Halberstam's long-awaited book on America in the last decade - the story of what happened when the best and the brightest men in the country came to Washington, to serve the Kennedy and Johnson administrations, and exercised, or failed to exercise, their power in office."
Sinopsis
David Halberstam's masterpiece, the defining history of the making of the Vietnam tragedy, with a new Foreword by Senator John McCain.Using portraits of America's flawed policy makers and accounts of the forces that drove them, The Best and the Brightest reckons magnificently with the most important abiding question of our country's recent history: Why did America become mired in Vietnam, and why did we lose? As the definitive single-volume answer to that question, this enthralling book has never been superseded. It is an American classic.From the Hardcover edition.
