foreign relations history, writing a book about henry kissinger is a bit like climbing mount everest. there is a small but sizable number of people who undertake the challenge because it is such a challenge. one of the things that makes it such a challenge is that there already is a large body of scholarship and kissinger. a number of things contribute with kissinger. i want to touch on a few things and post two questions. the two things that stand out about the book is, first, it's quite brief. he manages to cover the nixon years in about 200 pages. that remedy is hard to do well. to condense a consequential time when there is so much going on in so many different parts of the world, and to do it without over simple flying it and losing nuance is a perfect achievement. the second thing i think is useful about tom's book is the last chapter that he mentions kissinger after 1977. tom covers that quite extensively, more so than any other works. i can only think of one other recent work that does that at all. i think it is an important part of kissinger's career. one of the things that p
