Excerpt from Cuba and International Relations: A Historical Study in American Diplomacy Southern and Cuban slaveholders. _soon Texas came as a State to the United States, and the disagreement as to the boundary led to the unrolling of the American map to the Pacific, giving rise to new discussions concerning transit routes through Mexico and Central America, and as to the controlling position of Cuba in protecting these routes. From 1848 until the sounding of the alarm-gong of the Civil War, Cuba was continually a subject of international dispute or negotiation. The irritation produced by filibus tering was increased by the proposed Cuban reforms in slave labor, and by acts of Spanish o icials toward American ves sels, until the war clouds at one time hovered along the border.

Excerpt from The Diplomacy of the Revolution: Historical Study The best of diplomatic histories is undoubtedly the record of the negotiations themselves, but as the mere diplomatic cor respondence of the Revolution - that is, the communications of the foreign ministers of the United States with Congres takes up twelve goodly octavo volumes, besides requiring for its comprehension a Wide field of contemporary history, it is certain that very few, whatever interest might be felt on the subject, would have either time or inclination to master their own conclusions. This is, therefore, simply an effort to render more familiar to the public mind an important and interesting period of the country's history. It would have been easy to have made a larger book: the labor of this, such as it is, has been to condense its material into the fewest possible pages.

Diplomatic Investigations is a classic work in the field of International Relations. It is one of the few books in the field of International Relations (IR) that can be called iconic. Edited by Herbert Butterfield and Martin Wight, it brings together twelve papers delivered to early meetings of the British Committee on the Theory of International Politics, including several classic essays: Wight's 'Why is there no International Theory?' and 'Western Values in International Relations', Hedley Bull's 'Society and Anarchy in International Relations' and 'The Grotian Conception of International Society', and the two contributions made by Butterfield and by Wight on 'The Balance of Power'. Individually and collectively, these chapters have influenced not just the English school of international relations, but also a range of other approaches to the field of IR. After Diplomatic Investigations ceased to be available in print, it became a highly sought after book in the second-hand marketplace. This reissue, which includes a new introduction by Ian Hall and Tim Dunne, will ensure the book is available in the normal way, thereby enabling new generations of students and scholars to appreciate the work.

Excerpt from The Practice of Diplomacy: As Illustrated in the Foreign Relations of the United States It has not been the purpose to make this work a manual of diplomatic procedure, that field being already occupied by European publications. It is rather designed as a companion volume and complement of "A Century of American Diplomacy." As the latter sought to show the influence exerted by the United States in the framing and improvement of international law, the present work is intended, primarily, to set forth the part taken by American diplomatists in the elevation and purification of diplomacy; and, secondarily, to give in popular form, through such a narrative, the rules and procedure of diplomatic intercourse. While it is prepared for the general reader, numerous citations of authorities are given to enable the student to pursue his investigation by an examination of the original sources of information.

Excerpt from American Diplomacy This book is intended as a comprehensive and balanced, though brief, review of the history of American diplomacy. It is hoped that it will prove useful both to the student in the classroom and to the general reader, and will help to diffuse a knowledge of our diplomacy at a time when it is becoming increasingly important that public opinion should be internationally minded. While it is for the most part based upon an independent study of the sources, it is not presented as a contribution to knowledge but rather as a condensation of ascertained conclusions. The footnotes, therefore, contain few specific references to support the text, but rather suggest to the reader material for further study; either the more important sources, which in the case of diplomatic history are exceptionally readable, or those accounts and monographs which are most useful.
