Rating:
Summary: contributing to our understanding of 20th c politics
Review: Alanson B. houghton was a name lost as an important player in 20th century American history. Matthews work
helps connect the dots between the end of WW1 and Hitlers' invasion of Poland and illustrates Houghtons'
prescience in world affairs.Wonderfully written piece that weaves the various players in U.S. and European
government into an understandable story of diplomatic successes and failures leading to WW2.
