The Architecture of Diplomacy: Building America's Embassies (ADST-DACOR Diplomats & Diplomacy S.) - Hardcover
Synopsis
"The Architecture of Diplomacy" reveals the complex interplay of architecture, politics, and power in the history of America's embassy-building program. Through colorful personalities, bizarre episodes, and high drama, this compelling story takes readers from scandalous 'inspection' junkets by members of Congress to bugged offices at the Moscow embassy to the daring rescue of American personnel in Somalia by Marines and Navy Seals. Rigorously researched and lucidly written, "The Architecture of Diplomacy" focuses on the embassy-building program during the Cold War years, when the United States initiated a massive construction campaign that would demonstrate its commitment to its allies and assert its presence as a superpower.
