The Voice of the Foreign Service: A History of the American Foreign Service Association at 100 - Paperback

by Harry W. Kopp (Author)

The U.S. Foreign Service and the American Foreign Service Association were born together in 1924. In this second edition, released on their centennial, author Harry Kopp chronicles the evolution of the Foreign Service and the events and personalities that shaped AFSA into what it is today. Published by Foreign Service Books, The Voice of the Foreign Service combines an institutional history of America's diplomatic service from its earliest days to the present, with the twinned story of the American Foreign Service Association and its transformation from a benevolent society to an independent professional organization and exclusive employee representative of all members of the Foreign Service.
