Byrnes fought~patiently, firmly and wholeheartedly~to make a lasting peace. As Secretary of State, he, more than any one man, shaped and directed American foreign policy during that critical time. Now, believing that all Americans must know the facts if we are to achieve a real "peoples' peace," he goes on record with a full report of his efforts to get it. This is his story of the international conferences and conference interludes, of the diplomatic trials and errors, the crises, failures and accomplishrrlents of those two eventful, decisive years. His efforts as peace~maker began at Yalta, where, as Director of War Mobilization and "Assistant President," he sat in at the meetings of President Roosevelt, Winston Churchill and Stalin. As an adviser rather than an active participant, he was able to take full shorthand notes; these he uses to report verbatim the conversations of the Big Three at that historic meeting which marked the high tide in Soviet~American friendship. From Yalta, he takes the reader with him to Potsdam, explaining the situation the Americans faced there and how and why it had deteriorated since Yalta; then on to the London Conference of September '45, which ended in a deadlock; through the heartbreaks and triumphs of the Moscow and Paris Conferences to the Peace Conference, where the five European treaties were hammered out, and finally to the meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers in New York in December, 1946, where the deadlock was at last broken. Writing with extraordinary candor, with a wealth of personal anecdote and humorous detail, and making full use of his private notes on both formal and informal conversations, Mr. Byrnes proves himself a master reporter; keenly aware of what people need and want to know. These acute descriptions of the men and events behind the formal negotiations and the newspaper headlines make the reader intensely conscious of the drama and danger of international politics. In effect, they give him a personal seat at the conference table. The story takes added interest and immediacy from the fact that virtually all of it, except for information released to newspapers at the rime of the conferences, is unpublished material. Much of it~notably the record of the Hitler~Molotov conversations and the Russian plan of empire is based on captured, secret German documents. In conclusion, Mr. Byrnes casts an experienced eye to the future and points a way to the solution of the difficult problems that still lie ahead. It is a task for which he is uniquely qualified: he is the only man who has served as Representative, Senator, Justice of the United States Supreme Court and Secretary of State; the only ranking American who attended all the conferences from Yalta in February 1945 through the New York meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers in December 1946.
