Abstract

"In Watchman at the Gates, General George Joulwan chronicles his exceptional career in the upper echelons of the armed forces. Present at both the rise and fall of the Berlin Wall, he served multiple tours in Germany during the Cold War and two tours in Vietnam. By chance, he was recruited as Nixon's White House deputy chief of staff and witnessed the last acts of the Watergate drama first-hand. He went on to lead US Southern Command-fighting insurgencies and the drug war in Latin America-and was Supreme Allied Commander of NATO forces in Europe (SACEUR) during the Rwandan genocide and the Bosnian peacekeeping missions of the 1990s. At its heart, this inspiring memoir is a soldier's story-written by a warrior who saw defending his country and the democratic values it stands for as his highest calling. Joulwan shares his experiences working with many major military and political figures, including generals William E. DePuy, Alexander Haig, John Vessey, and Colin Powell, US ambassador Richard Holbrooke, and presidents Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, and Bill Clinton. Throughout, he merges memory and lessons in leadership, paying tribute to his teachers and colleagues and explaining the significance of their influence on his personal approach to command. Featuring a foreword by Tom Brokaw, Watchman at the Gates offers incredible insights into world events as well as valuable lessons for a new generation of leaders"--

Abstract

Jimmy Carter participated in more than two hundred interviews between 1976 and 1996. In the twenty-three conversations presented here, highly regarded interviewers lead President Carter to clarify his public stands and private beliefs. The dialogue created through these encounters demonstrates the growth of a principled man, encapsulating the major debates and concerns of the last quarter of the "American Century." Taken separately, the conversations provide a window on the recent past; taken together, they provide the basis for a new understanding of Carter the individualist and for a reassessment of an important segment of the political thought of our times. The interviewers are Bonnie Angelo, David Broder, Tom Brokaw, Walter Cronkite, John Chancellor, Stanley Cloud, John Dancy, Sam Donaldson, Richard F. Fenno, Robert Fulghum, Murray Gart, Erwin Hargrove, Steven Hochman, Charles O. Jones, Bill Kovach, James Laue, H. Clifton McCleskey, Robert McNeil, Bill Moyers, Richard E. Neustadt, Dan Rather, Harry Reasoner, Barbara Reynolds, Don Richardson, Carl Rowan, Robert Scheer, Bob Schieffer, Hugh Sidney, Kenneth W. Thompson, David B. Truman, Mike Wallace, Barbara Walters, Curtis Wilkie, Judy Woodruff, and James S. Young.
