State Of The Union Addresses - Hardcover

The book covers a range of topics, including energy policy, foreign relations, and economic reform. With an introduction by Carter himself, this collection offers a unique perspective on a pivotal period in American history.Three basic developments have helped to shape our challenges: the steady growth and increased projection of Soviet military power beyond its own borders; the overwhelming dependence of the Western democracies on oil supplies from the Middle East; and the press of social and religious and economic and political change in the many nations of the developing world, exemplified by the revolution in Iran.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
