Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, Stanford University, 1979. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Trade paperback. xv, 138 pages. Notes. Bibliography. Index. No dust jacket as issued. Joseph Douglass, Jr., Ph.D. was an author, teacher and internationally recognized authority on U.S.-Soviet relations and subsequent geopolitical strategies and conflicts. During his career, Dr. Douglass was sought out for his research, knowledge and expertise on the strategies and tactics of the U.S.S.R. during the Cold War and also for his interviews revealing facts about the fate of thousands U.S. military personnel listed as missing in action and prisoners of war during World War II and the Korean and Vietnam conflicts. Dr. Douglas taught at Cornell as well as The Johns Hopkins University, and the Navy Postgraduate School. He also worked at the Advanced Research Projects Agency. Dr. Douglass was best known for two books that he wrote following a long debriefing of Mr. Jan Sejna, the highest-ranking Communist defector to the United States. Those books, Red Cocaine, the Drugging of America, and Betrayed, the story of MIAs and POWs from several U.S. wars, are considered by some experts to contain breakthrough information on international drug strategies and the illegal detention and experimentation on MIAs and POWs based on evidence gained from interviews. Other books include Soviet Strategy for Nuclear War Soviet Military Strategy in Europe, Conventional War and Escalation: The Soviet View, Decision- Making in Communist Countries, Why the Soviets Violate Arms Control Treaties, and The Soviet Theater Nuclear Offensive.

New York, N.Y. Fusion Energy Foundation, 1983. Preprint Presumed first edition, first printing thus. Wraps. [2], 13, [1] pages. Oversized item, measuring 10-1/2 inches by 8-1/4 inches. Some discoloration to front cover. Erasure residue on front cover. Most pages printed in a two column format. This essay is devoted to the subject of the context for defining requirements for medical and related civil defense under both probable conditions of risk of nuclear and other warfare during an interval of perhaps five to seven years ahead, and also a capacity for dealing with catastrophes of other forms for which a similar kind of emergency capability is required. Fusion Energy Foundation (FEF) was an American non-profit think tank co-founded by Lyndon LaRouche in 1974 in New York. It promoted the construction of nuclear power plants, research into fusion power and beam weapons and other causes. The FEF was called fusion's greatest private supporter. It was praised by scientists like John Clarke, who said that the fusion community owed it a "debt of gratitude". By 1980, its main publication, Fusion, claimed 80,000 subscribers. The FEF included notable scientists and others on its boards, along with LaRouche movement insiders in management positions. It published a popular magazine, Fusion, and a more technical journal as well as books and pamphlets. It conducted seminars and its members testified at legislative hearings. It was known for soliciting subscriptions to their magazines in U.S. airports, where its confrontational methods resulted in conflicts with celebrities and the general public. The FEF has been described by many writers[who?] as a "front" for the U.S. Labor Party and the LaRouche movement. By the mid-1980s, the FEF was being accused of fraudulent fundraising on behalf of other LaRouche entities. Federal prosecutors forced it into bankruptcy in 1986 to collect contempt of court fines, a decision that was later overturned when a federal bankruptcy court found that the government had acted "in bad faith".[1] Key personnel were convicted in 1988.

Arlington, VA: Admiral Zumwalt & Associates, Inc., 1976. Presumed first printing thus. Hardcover. xv, [1], 568 pages. Illustrations. Maps. Chronology. Appendices. Glossary. Index. Inscribed by the author. On Watch is one of two books written by U.S. Navy admiral Elmo Zumwalt. It is largely a critical appraisal of the military policies of the Richard Nixon presidency during the Cold War. Though billed as a memoir, Zumwalt spends the first three chapters dealing with his early life, which included his time at the U.S. Naval Academy, service during World War II, and his family. Most of the volume addresses the years 1970 to 1974, when Zumwalt served as United States Chief of Naval Operations. In it, Zumwalt critically appraises the military policies of the Richard Nixon presidency with regard to Soviet containment at the height of the Cold War. In addition to Nixon and Kissinger, Zumwalt takes aim at the then-elderly Admiral Hyman G. Rickover. Zumwalt charged: Rickover continually worked to ingratiate himself with members of the United States Congress as a means of consolidating personal political power; underhandedly challenged the authority of the Chief of Naval Operations; and would "stop at nothing" to ensure the primacy of nuclear programs over conventional armaments. Zumwalt used his memoir to criticize the Nixon administration, which he felt was too accommodating to the Soviet Union. Other sections of On Watch are spent on Zumwalt's glowing recollections of Paul Nitze, under whom he started working as an aide when Nitze was Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs, as well as discussing the racial integration of the U.S. Navy, and the expanding role of women in military service.
