Industry Reviews:

"John Lewis Gaddis...has brought again to life the dilemmas and aspirations of those pivotal decades of the mid-20th century. His magisterial work, GEORGE F. KENNAN: AN AMERICAN LIFE bids fair to be as close to the final word as possible on one of the most important, complex, moving, challenging and exasperating American public servants....We can be grateful to John Lewis Gaddis for bringing Kennan back to us, thoughtful, human, self-centered, contradictory, inspirational--a permanent spur as consciences are wont to be. Masterfully researched, exhaustively documented, Gaddis's moving work gives us a figure with whom, however one might differ on details, it was a privilege to be a contemporary."
