Amb. Graham will also sign copies of his book following the luncheon in the

1, so this is an advance preview.
From UW Press..."In 'Unending Crisis,' Thomas Graham Jr. examines the second
Bush administration's misguided management of foreign policy, the legacy of
which has been seven major--and almost irresolvable--national security crises
involving North Korea, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, the Arab-Israeli conflict
in Palestine, and nuclear proliferation. Unending Crisis considers these issues
individually and together, emphasizing their interrelationship and delineating the
role that the neoconservative agenda played in redefining the way America is
perceived in the world today."
