"Stanley Karnow has written the ultimate book--brilliant, panoramic, engrossing--about American behavior overseas in the twentieth century."--The Boston Sunday Globe "A page-turning story and authoritative history."--The New York Times "Perhaps the best journalist writing on Asian affairs."--NewsweekEXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
