Cr�ticas

This book provides some interesting material to enhance our understanding of the role that the US has played in Pakistan's politics. In addition, there is some very relevant background material on the Bangladesh crisis - all extremely invaluable information to a people who have still to come to terms with the dismemberment of their country. (Newsline, Pakistan)

F. S. Aijazuddin is more than an editor ... his introduction is in itself an outstanding summary of the pre-1969 events that bound together the US, Pakistan and China. Aijazuddin is ideally equipped for the job ... He guides us through a treacherous territory in which he feels quite at home. (Newsline, Pakistan)

Rese�a del editor

This book is an invaluable addition to original source material relating to the subcontinent. It contains over 150 hitherto highly confidential documents of Nixon's presidency, covering Dr Kissinger's now celebrated trip to Beijing from Islamabad in July 1971, the events that lead up to the Indo-Pak war over East Pakistan in December 1971, and the period of the populist Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's administration as President and subsequently Prime Minister. Each document has been fully annotated and supported by useful footnotes. The book also has a lengthy, well written introduction covering US-Pakistan relations from the years 1947-1969.
