Download or read book The American Ambassador Classic Reprint written by Lawrence Byrne and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Ambassador Three days ago, out of a clear sky, this telegram arrived: Come at once to Washington. Think I have you fixed. Walter. Walter is my best friend. He has succeeded fairly well in the Diplomatic Service, and at present is fulfilling an important position - if one may judge by the resonant title which signifies it - in the Department of State. He has been urging me for several years to go in for diplomacy; always encouraging me with the remark that I am so admirably fitted for it. What he means by this I don't exactly know. I'm of the opinion that he doesn't either. However, I had told him to tip me off if any chance came; and I felt sure that this telegram meant that the opportunity had come knocking at my door. He met me at the station. "You're looking quite fit. Ready for a job?" He took me by the arm and piloted me through the crowd to his motor. "It's all ready for you."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ambassador Morgenthau's Story I have therefore laid aside any scruples I had as to the propriety of disclosing to my fellow countrymen the facts which I learned While representing them in Turkey. I acquired this knowledge as the servant of the American people, and it is their property as much as it is mine. I greatly regret that I have been obliged to omit an account of the splendid activities of the American Missionary and Educational Institutions in Turkey, but to do justice to this subject would require a book by itself. I have had to omit the story of the Jews in Turkey for the same reasons. My thanks are due to my friend, Mr. Burton J. Hendrick, for the invaluable assistance he has ren dered in the preparation of the book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book American Ambassadors written by Dennis C. Jett and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-25 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you ever wondered who becomes an American ambassador and why, this is the book for you. It describes how Foreign Service officers become ambassadors by rising up through the ranks, and why they typically make up about 70 percent of the total number of ambassadors. It also covers where the other 30 percent come from—the political appointees who get the job because they helped elect the president by supporting him as a campaign contributor, a political ally, or a personal friend. It explains why, despite being illegal and a threat to national security, selling the title of ambassador remains a common practice that is also unique to the United States. It considers why some suggestions for reform are misguided, what might be done, and why who the president is matters so much in determining how well the United States will be represented abroad. This updated and revised edition of Jett's classic book not only provides a timely overview of American ambassadorship for Foreign Service Officers, aspiring diplomats, and interested citizens, but also calls for much-needed reform, describing the dire implications of failing to change our ambassadorial appointments process for the future of American diplomatic practice and foreign policy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Times History of the War, Vol. 13 Lest this may seem an extreme judgment, in View of the stalwart sympathy of so many leaders of informed American opinion, two quotations from speeches by the President delivered less than six months before the rupture may be given. Speaking at Omaha on October 5, 1916, Mr. Wilsoh said: The singularity of the present war is that its roots and origins and object never have been dis closed. They have obscure European roots which we do not know how to trace. It will take the long inquiry of history to explain this war. And on October 26 at Cincinnati Have you ever heard What started the present war If you have I wish you would publish it, because nobody else has, so far as I can gather.

Download or read book Danger and Opportunity written by Edward P. Djerejian and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-08-04 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Edward P. Djerejian arrived in Beirut for his first Foreign Service assignment, the city was a thriving metropolis, a nexus for a diversity of religious beliefs, political ideas, and cultural practices. More than forty years since, the broader Middle East region is undergoing significant change in the face of a deep-rooted con-frontation between the forces of reaction and modernity in the rapidly growing Muslim populations. Serious deficits in education, political participation, economic progress, and human rights are exacerbated by unresolved conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Kashmir, and between Arabs and Israelis. Djerejian, an American diplomat who served eight presidents, both Democratic and Republican, from John F. Kennedy to William Jefferson Clinton, publicly shares for the first time intimate details and colorful anecdotes of his service in the Middle East. During his tenure, he developed close professional relationships with many of the region's secular and religious leaders and was a key advisor to Washington's highest-ranking officials and political leaders. He was instrumental in formulating U.S. policy in the region, and participated actively in Arab-Israeli peace negotiations, the release of U.S. hostages in Lebanon, and the formation of the U.S.-led coalition against Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait. A leading expert on the Middle East, Djerejian asserts that Americans are confronted with one of the most important challenges of our time: the struggle of ideas between the forces of extremism and moderation in the Arab and Muslim world. Mistakenly assuming that radical political ideologies fell with communism at the end of the Cold War, policy makers are employing insufficient strategies to promote the important political, economic, commercial, cultural, and security interests that the United States -- and the rest of the world -- have in the region. Djerejian explains what has gone wrong with U.S. policy and suggests a way forward for future admin-istrations. The United States must learn to deal with the complex religious, ethnic, and cultural factors at play in the Middle East. We must not impose our own political structure on the Arab and Muslim world, but we can help marginalize the radicals and champion a democratic way of life in conformity with the cultural context of the region's own mainstream values and ideals. In his captivating and illuminating book -- the only one of its kind to address the full scope of issues that U.S. leaders face in the Middle East -- Djerejian outlines specific coherent strategies necessary to respond effectively to the imminent danger and dynamic opportunity presented by the struggle within the Islamic world.
