First Edition "Foster, Allen, and Eleanor Dulles were three extraordinarily strong individuals, yet, as Leonard Mosley shows so brilliantly, they were linked by a complex 'family network,' forged in an outwardly conventional childhood. This book's insight into their private lives -including their decidedly unusual years of growing up - reveals the remarkable interplay between private and public faces, ripping aside the accepted façades of statesman, spy, and sister . . . . As Leonard Mosley demonstrates, in fascinating detail, the ebb and flow of American fortunes and the outer and inner realities of these three unique people are intertwined to form a major strand in the tumultuous and unwritten history of America in our time" [from the dust jacket] ISBN: 080371744X Book is in Very Good Plus Condition: front and back endpapers with glue residue from previous owner gluing the dust jacket to the book (no longer glued); otherwise, all the pages are bright, clean, tight, and unmarked.
