A joint biography of John Foster Dulles and Allen Dulles, who led the United States into an unseen war that decisively shaped today's worldDuring the 1950s, when the Cold War was at its peak, two immensely powerful brothers led the United States into a series of foreign adventures whose effects are still shaking the world.John Foster Dulles was secretary of state while his brother, Allen Dulles, was director of the Central Intelligence Agency. In this book, Stephen Kinzer places their extraordinary lives against the background of American culture and history. He uses the framework of biography to ask: Why does the United States behave as it does in the world?The Brothers explores hidden forces that shape the national psyche, from religious piety to Western movies—many of which are about a noble gunman who cleans up a lawless town by killing bad guys. This is how the Dulles brothers saw themselves, and how many Americans still see their country's role in the world.Propelled by a quintessentially American set of fears and delusions, the Dulles brothers launched violent campaigns against foreign leaders they saw as threats to the United States. These campaigns helped push countries from Guatemala to the Congo into long spirals of violence, led the United States into the Vietnam War, and laid the foundation for decades of hostility between the United States and countries from Cuba to Iran.The story of the Dulles brothers is the story of America. It illuminates and helps explain the modern history of the United States and the world. A Kirkus Reviews Best Nonfiction Book of 2013

I have read a number of Kinzer's books and this is one of my favorites. I read the book in conjunction with listening to the audio version. This book presents a picture of American foreign policy that I found shocking. I had been acquainted with some of the incidents that are recorded in this book, but the book tied together numerous incidents in mid to late 20th century American history that were affected by the Dulles brothers. I knew about Allen Dulles and the fact that he was the person who led the Warren Commission investigation into the assassination of JFK, but I had no idea of the depth of his and his brothers effects upon US Soviet relationships , the Cold war, Indochina, Africa and Central America. Reading this book made me sad - these two brothers are greatly responsible for many of the problems that the US faces abroad. If you take the time to read this book you might also like to read Kinzer's "All the Shah's men" . If you take the time to read this book it is likely to leave you shaken and wondering how our country could have condoned the actions of these two men.
