| Publisher Description: This small collection of some 400 pages is a complementary collection supporting the 8-volume collection US Records on Saudi Affairs 1945-1960. This volume presents facsimile originals of state correspondence at the highest level - between four US Presidents: Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy, and King Abdul Aziz of Saudi Arabia - during the key developmental phase in the post-war relationship between the two nations, 1941-1963. While a great deal of the US State Department papers are either withheld or heavily censored, what is left remains quite fascinating as these Heads of State are revealed through their own words. |
