Theodore Draper, one of America's most respected independent historians and political commentators, presents a rigorous and unflinching critique of U.S. governmental decision-making, from the Bay of Pigs debacle to the deepening quagmire of Vietnam. With the precision of a seasoned journalist and the rigour of a scholar, Draper argues that American leaders repeatedly overstepped democratic boundaries, placing executive power above constitutional accountability. The result is a compelling indictment of Cold War-era policy that remains strikingly relevant to debates about the limits of power and the responsibilities of democratic governance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888016732379,"sku":"2026200009591-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/756ca6a3-f2b6-477a-89f2-e12be9fd91e5.png?v=1781752929","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009591-secondhand-abuse-of-power-from-cuba-to-vietnam","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
