Garden City, NY: Doubleday, 1984. First Edition. Presumed first printing. Hardcover. 24 cm. x, [4], 322 pages. Index, DJ worn, soiled, and edge tears, ink notation and pencil erasure on front endpaper, a few marginal ink marks & notations. Derived from a Kirkus review: The Vatican as an International Crisis Center, with the Pope and a corps of clerical diplomats manning the telex machines, dashing around the globe on emergency missions, trying to bring peace to belligerent states and order to the Church. Thomas and Morgan-Witts are old Vatican hands (since '63). They now turn to Mehmet Ali Agca and the Bulgarian Connection, Papa Wojtyla's duels with the Jaruzelski government and Moscow, the strong CIA presence in Rome, efforts at intervention in Lebanon and Guatemala, etc. The authors provide inside information garnered from people like the head of Vatican security, Camillo Cibin. Their report is crammed with detailed little items of some interest and at least one large question mark (secret agent Frank Terpil's part in the assassination plot). More

The author may be the same person who became Library Director at Lock Haven University. The Monroe Doctrine was a United States policy of opposing European colonialism in the Americas beginning in 1823. It stated that further efforts by European nations to take control of any independent state in North or South America would be viewed as "the manifestation of an unfriendly disposition toward the United States." At the same time, the doctrine noted that the U.S. would recognize and not interfere with existing European colonies nor meddle in the internal concerns of European countries. The Doctrine was issued on December 2, 1823 at a time when nearly all Latin American colonies of Spain and Portugal had achieved, or were at the point of gaining, independence from the Portuguese and Spanish Empires.
