      abstract = {"The Peace Corps, conceived in the can-do spirit of the  sixties, embodied America's long pursuit of moral  leadership on a global scale. Traversing four decades and  three continents, this story of the Peace Corps and the  people and politics behind it is a fascinating look at  American idealism at work amid the hard political realities  of the second half of the twentieth century." "With vivid  stories from returned volunteers of exotic places and  daunting circumstances, this is an engrossing account of  the successes and failures of this unique governmental  organization, and of the geopolitics and personal  convictions that underpin it. In the end, the question that  is most compelling is whether the Peace Corps most helped  the countries that received its volunteers, or whether its  greater service was to America and its sense of national  identity and mission."--BOOK JACKET.},
