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: Random House, 2013. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. xxxi, [1], 631, [9] pages. Footnotes. Illustrations. Index. Dust jacket has minor wear and soiling. Ink underlining and comments noted in several places. Derived from a Kirkus review: An insightful, unique view of the multiple Pulitzer-winning liberal icon Arthur Schlesinger Jr. (1917–2007). Serving as their father’s editor, Schlesinger’s sons—former ABC News documentary writer Andrew and former Time contributor and World Policy Journal publisher Stephen—mined more than 60 years of his correspondence and worked through the thousands of letters held at the New York Public Library and other collections. They also drew from his wide-ranging and varied correspondents to produce a worthy follow-up and companion to their Journals: 1952–2000. The letters selected here provide a clear picture of the multifaceted talents of their father. Schlesinger’s credentials provided standing for the advice he addressed to Democratic presidential candidates Walter Mondale in 1984 and Bill Clinton in 1992. He helped them run effective campaigns and noted that they should avoid the temptation to “out-Republican the Republicans.” Schlesinger and National Review founder William F. Buckley Jr. corresponded over many years, each welcoming the other’s latest publication efforts and disputing the historical significance of such figures as Joseph McCarthy. The editors also do a good job of representing Schlesinger's relations with the Kennedy family over the years, and there are sharply penned rebuttals of critics of the Kennedy brothers' Cuba policy—in which Schlesinger’s attention to detail predominates.
