ISBN: 9780890969533 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Americans consider themselves a peaceful people. Yet every generation since colonial times has taken part in war. Why? Does something in our democratic creed lead us repeatedly into hostilities? Does the American sense of mission demand that we take up arms to transform the world into our own image? Do baser motives drive national policy?

The Johnson Years, Volume Three: LBJ at Home and Abroad
ISBN: 9780700606559 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Over the past decade, Lyndon Johnson has become the focus of an increasing number of revisionist studies. As a group, these works have been every bit as contentious and contradictory as LBJ himself and, ultimately, have provided only limited consensus on his presidency and his political career. Adding fire to the debate, seven leading Johnson scholars here provide a revealing new look at LBJ's role in domestic and foreign policy. They examine his obsession with the Vietnam War; his commitment to the Great Society and civil rights; his failure to deal with radical civil-rights leaders and...

The Sputnik Challenge: Eisenhower's Response to the Soviet Satellite
ISBN: 9780195050080 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. On October 4, 1957, the Soviet Union launched a 184-pound metal ball called Sputnik into orbit around the Earth, and America plummeted into a panic. Nuclear weapon designer Edward Teller claimed that the United States had lost "a battle more important and greater than Pearl Harbor," and magazine articles appeared with such headlines as "Are We Americans Going Soft?" In the White House, President Eisenhower seemed to do nothing, leading Kennedy in 1960 to proclaim a "missile gap" in the Soviet's favor. Rarely has public perception been so dramatically at odds with reality.
