CONGRESS AND AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY: A Background Book on the Presidential-Congressional Struggle

By

Publisher: Parents' Magazine Press

Richard Walton combines historical overview and a carefully reasoned thesis with his usual skill as he traces the gradual erosion of Congress' war-making powers. This is not a prescription for change -- rather a clear, admirably well documented review which should be valuable to anyone who wants to understand what the Gulf of Tonkin resolution was all about.
