Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The author, a 37-year veteran of the Foreign Service, provides an unredacted, unabashed and often humorous account of how foreign policy was developed and executed during the Reagan-Bush years and how that impacted U.S. relations with three very different countries where he served as ambassador: Pan…ama, Honduras and Portugal.This book is must-reading for anyone interested in the real story of what set off the events leading to the U.S. invasion of Panama and capture of its drug-dealing dictator, Manuel Antonio Noriega, and of the Central American crisis that pitted U.S.-backed Nicaraguan contras against the Sandinista regime in Managua. Ambassador Briggs pulls no punches in detailing the administration's successes and failures in a conflicted corner of the globe and in calling to account those in and out of Congress and the administration who sought to promote, subvert or sabotage U.S. policy.Briggs's stint at the National Security Council provides some fascinating insights into what it was like serving as special assistant to President George H.W. Bush, and then as Bush's ambassador to Portugal at a time when relations between the two NATO allies could not have been closer.Those contemplating a career in diplomacy will want to take note of Briggs's especially trenchant comments about the management of State, inter-agency relations, economic aid, and more.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Most people have some idea of what an ambassador does, but few are aware of what life and work is like for the career Foreign Service folk who populate our missions abroad and provide continuity and guidance to the policy makers in Washington. This book more than fills that gap. It is the story of o…ne Foreign Service Officer's career as he works his way, rung by slippery rung, up the ranks as an ambassador's apprentice. With candor, insight, and humor, Everett (Ted) Briggs recounts what it was like to be the most junior officer at the US embassy in La Paz, Bolivia (gasping for air at 12,500 feet above sea level); an aide to the top State Department official in occupied Berlin, when the wall went up; consul general in Angola when revolution in Portugal ended five hundred years of colonial rule; and deputy chief of mission in Paraguay and Colombia at the start of the so-called war on drugs. Interspersed among foreign assignments was duty in Washington, stressful from a financial standpoint but good for the career and for the five Briggs children. Briggs's memoir is rich in description of people, some in high places, and of the shifting environment in which he found himself. His comments on issues and policies are particularly cogent and timely. As he says in his preface, 'May [this book] help make the nuts and bolts of diplomacy more understandable (if not necessarily plausible) and provide a few verities for future generations of aspiring diplomats to ponder.'.
