Summary
"For more than a generation, NATO faced USSR political and military threats. The Soviet effort to intimidate Europeans with modern intermediate nuclear forces (INF) required a sophisticated Alliance response coordinating both U.S. force deployments and arms control negotiating confrontations with the Soviets. Ambassador Maynard Glitman offers unique insights into the decade-long process to negotiate a Treaty eliminating these systems and secure Senate ratification of the INF Treaty."--BOOK JACKET
