In this, the first serious biography of Cyrus Vance, the author challenges the belief that Carter-Vance foreign policy was ineffective. McLellan depicts Vance as a realistic and principled statesman who played a crucial role in such diplomatic successes as Salt II, the Camp David accords, and the Panama Canal Treaty.
