Reviews

"""'In his critically astute examination of five consequential but lesser known Western diplomats at work in the early decades of the twentieth century, George Liebmann provides students of diplomacy with valuable insights into a world in which personal diplomacy flourished. These men, drawing on exceptional talents of observation, analysis and advocacy, influenced governments who cared about what they had to say and often followed their advice. Liebmann enriches our understanding of a vital period during which unfettered diplomats in roles they largely created for themselves mattered.' Brandon Grove, President Emeritus, The American Academy of Diplomacy"""
