"Brian VanDeMark ""The Boston Sunday Globe"" Well-crafted...ambitious, all-embracing....It is a complex and human self-portrait drawn by a proud, intelligent, and reflective man. Craig Eisendrath ""The Philadelphia Inquirer"" Kissinger's engagingly written chronicle of these years is rich in detail and insight, a ""must read"" for foreign policy mavens. John Lewis Gaddis ""The New York Times Book Review"" A remarkable achievement. Josef Joffe ""The Wall Street Journal"" A style that simply outclasses the normal fare served up by former people of power....An engrossing book, truly hard to put down. Richard Bernstein ""The New York Times"" Mr. Kissinger's history of his own time in office is a work whose breadth, clarity of vision and historical scope amply justify its size. It is an event, a likely classic of its genre."
