Review
Halberstam is a master at presenting well-rounded portraits and telling anecdotes of the personalities that have created US policy, casting new light on well-known figures such as Clinton, Colin Powell and George W Bush, as well as supporting players such as Anthony Lake, Richard Holbrooke, James Baker, Madeleine Albright, General Wesley Clark, Al Gore and many other influential American leaders of the past decade. Having covered many aspects of American history and foreign policy since the early 1960s, Halberstam is uniquely qualified to report on an era in which the US, and the world, has changed so dramatically. --Shawn Carkonen

Store description
We've spent decades collecting & selling books, atlases, antique maps & much more. Time to spread my online presence to help a more people find that rare or unusual history book, or stunning antique maps & atlases. We will be replacing our inventory regularly & as a rule we only sell items in Very Good Plus condition or better. The majority of the history books we sell are largely based within the years 1000-1950, and are largely European or Middle East related. We also sell genuine antique maps & atlases generally from the 1700 & 1800's, plus related geographical pieces. Our books are predominantly political, academic, biographic, history & military books - anything you need, just ask & hopefully we can find it so you. The same applies to our antique maps, we have a large unlisted inventory in storage, so want to see somewhere between 1700-1900 likely to be able to help. Any other questions at all - please message. Tas Alco Books & Maps, Coburg, Australia.…
