In 1972, America sought to withdraw from Vietnam with its credibility intact, with President Nixon and National Security Advisor Kissinger hoping that gains on the battlefield would strengthen their position at the negotiating table. Randolph's intimate chronicle of the commander-in-chief gains us unprecedented access to how these strategic assessments were made and played out. 001478239 538__ $$aMode of access: Internet via World Wide Web. 001478239 546__ $$aIn English. 001478239 5880_ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (publisher's Web site, viewed 08.
