	George/np Kennan's/np$ account/nn of/in relations/nns between/in Russia/np and/cc the/at West/nr-tl from/in the/at fall/nn of/in Tsarism/np to/in the/at end/nn of/in World/nn-tl War/nn-tl 2/cd-tl ,/, is/bez the/at finest/jjt piece/nn of/in diplomatic/jj history/nn that/wps has/hvz appeared/vbn in/in many/ap years/nns ./.
It/pps combines/vbz qualities/nns that/wps are/ber seldom/rb found/vbn in/in one/cd work/nn :/: Scrupulous/jj scholarship/nn ,/, a/at fund/nn of/in personal/jj experience/nn ,/, a/at sense/nn of/in drama/nn and/cc characterization/nn and/cc a/at broad/jj grasp/nn of/in the/at era's/nn$ great/jj historical/jj issues/nns ./.


	In/in short/jj ,/, the/at book/nn ,/, based/vbn largely/rb on/in lectures/nns delivered/vbn at/in Harvard/np-tl University/nn-tl ,/, is/bez both/abx reliable/jj and/cc readable/jj ;/. ;/.
the/at author/nn possesses/vbz an/at uncommonly/ql fine/jj English/np style/nn ,/, and/cc he/pps is/bez dealing/vbg with/in subjects/nns of/in vast/jj importance/nn that/wps are/ber highly/ql topical/jj for/in our/pp$ time/nn ./.
If/cs Mr./np Kennan/np is/bez sometimes/rb a/at little/ql somber/jj in/in his/pp$ appraisals/nns ,/, if/cs his/pp$ analysis/nn of/in how/wrb Western/jj-tl diplomacy/nn met/vbd the/at challenge/nn of/in an/at era/nn of/in great/jj wars/nns and/cc social/jj revolutions/nns is/bez often/rb critical/jj and/cc pessimistic/jj --/-- well/uh ,/, the/at record/nn itself/ppl is/bez not/* too/ql encouraging/jj ./.


	Mr./np Kennan/np takes/vbz careful/jj account/nn of/in every/at mitigating/vbg circumstance/nn in/in recalling/vbg the/at historical/jj atmosphere/nn in/in which/wdt mistaken/vbn decisions/nns were/bed taken/vbn ./.
But/cc he/pps rejects/vbz ,/, perhaps/rb a/at little/ql too/ql sweepingly/rb ,/, the/at theory/nn that/cs disloyal/jj and/cc pro-Communist/jj influences/nns may/md have/hv contributed/vbn to/in the/at policy/nn of/in appeasing/vbg Stalin/np which/wdt persisted/vbd until/in after/in the/at end/nn of/in the/at war/nn and/cc reached/vbd its/pp$ high/jj point/nn at/in the/at Yalta/np-tl Conference/nn-tl in/in February/np ,/, 1945/cd ./.


	After/in all/abn ,/, Alger/np Hiss/np ,/, subsequently/rb convicted/vbn of/in perjury/nn in/in denying/vbg that/cs he/pps gave/vbd secret/jj State/nn-tl Department/nn-tl documents/nns to/in Soviet/nn-tl agents/nns ,/, was/bedz at/in Yalta/np ./.
And/cc Harry/np Dexter/np White/np ,/, implicated/vbn in/in F.B.I./np reports/nns in/in Communist/nn-tl associations/nns ,/, was/bedz one/cd of/in the/at architects/nns of/in the/at Morgenthau/np-tl Plan/nn-tl ,/, which/wdt had/hvd it/pps ever/rb been/ben put/vbn into/in full/jj operation/nn ,/, would/md have/hv simply/rb handed/vbn Germany/np to/in Stalin/np ./.
One/cd item/nn in/in this/dt unhappy/jj scheme/nn was/bedz to/to have/hv Germany/np policed/vbn exclusively/rb by/in its/pp$ continental/jj neighbors/nns ,/, among/in whom/wpo only/rb the/at Soviet/nn-tl Union/nn-tl possessed/vbd real/jj military/jj strength/nn ./.


	It/pps is/bez quite/ql probable/jj ,/, however/wrb ,/, that/dt stupidity/nn ,/, inexperience/nn and/cc childish/jj adherence/nn to/in slogans/nns like/vb ``/`` unconditional/jj surrender/nn ''/'' had/hvd more/ap to/to do/do with/in the/at unsatisfactory/jj settlements/nns at/in the/at end/nn of/in the/at war/nn than/cs treason/nn or/cc sympathy/nn with/in Communism/nn-tl ./.
Mr./np Kennan/np sums/vbz up/rp his/pp$ judgment/nn of/in what/wdt went/vbd wrong/jj this/dt way/nn :/:

``/`` You/ppss see/vb ,/, first/od of/in all/abn and/cc in/in a/at sense/nn as/cs the/at source/nn of/in all/abn other/ap ills/nns ,/, the/at unshakeable/jj American/jj commitment/nn to/in the/at principle/nn of/in unconditional/jj surrender/nn :/: The/at tendency/nn to/to view/vb any/dti war/nn in/in which/wdt we/ppss might/md be/be involved/vbn not/* as/cs a/at means/nns of/in achieving/vbg limited/vbn objectives/nns in/in the/at way/nn of/in changes/nns in/in a/at given/vbn status/nn quo/fw-wdt ,/, but/cc as/cs a/at struggle/nn to/in the/at death/nn between/in total/jj virtue/nn and/cc total/jj evil/nn ,/, with/in the/at result/nn that/cs the/at war/nn had/hvd absolutely/rb to/to be/be fought/vbn to/in the/at complete/jj destruction/nn of/in the/at enemy's/nn$ power/nn ,/, no/at matter/nn what/wdt disadvantages/nns or/cc complications/nns this/dt might/md involve/vb for/in the/at more/ql distant/jj future/nn ''/'' ./.


	Recognizing/vbg that/cs there/ex could/md have/hv been/ben no/at effective/jj negotiated/vbn peace/nn with/in Hitler/np ,/, he/pps points/vbz out/rp the/at shocking/jj failure/nn to/to give/vb support/nn to/in the/at anti-Nazi/jj underground/nn ,/, which/wdt very/ql nearly/rb eliminated/vbd Hitler/np in/in 1944/cd ./.
A/at veteran/jj diplomat/nn with/in an/at extraordinary/jj knowledge/nn of/in Russian/jj language/nn ,/, history/nn and/cc literature/nn ,/, Kennan/np recalls/vbz how/wrb ,/, at/in the/at time/nn of/in Hitler's/np$ attack/nn on/in the/at Soviet/nn-tl Union/nn-tl in/in 1941/cd ,/, he/pps penned/vbd a/at private/jj note/nn to/in a/at State/nn-tl Department/nn-tl official/nn ,/, expressing/vbg the/at hope/nn that/cs ``/`` never/rb would/md we/ppss associate/vb ourselves/ppls with/in Russian/jj purposes/nns in/in the/at areas/nns of/in eastern/jj Europe/np beyond/in her/pp$ own/jj boundaries/nns ''/'' ./.


	The/at hope/nn was/bedz vain/jj ./.
With/in justified/vbn bitterness/nn the/at author/nn speaks/vbz of/in ``/`` what/wdt seems/vbz to/in me/ppo to/to have/hv been/ben an/at inexcusable/jj body/nn of/in ignorance/nn about/in the/at nature/nn of/in the/at Russian/jj Communist/nn-tl movement/nn ,/, about/in the/at history/nn of/in its/pp$ diplomacy/nn ,/, about/in what/wdt had/hvd happened/vbn in/in the/at purges/nns ,/, and/cc about/in what/wdt had/hvd been/ben going/vbg on/rp in/in Poland/np and/cc the/at Baltic/np-tl States/nns-tl ''/'' ./.

	No/at wonder/nn Khrushchev's/np$ first/od message/nn to/in President/nn-tl Kennedy/np was/bedz a/at wistful/jj desire/nn for/in the/at return/nn of/in the/at ``/`` good/jj old/jj days/nns ''/'' of/in Roosevelt/np ./.

The/at first/od of/in these/dts involved/vbd the/at replacement/nn of/in the/at Tsar/np by/in a/at liberal/jj Provisional/jj-tl Government/nn-tl in/in March/np ,/, 1917/cd ;/. ;/.

	As/cs Kennan/np shows/vbz ,/, the/at judgment/nn of/in the/at Allied/vbn-tl governments/nns about/in what/wdt was/bedz happening/vbg in/in Russia/np was/bedz warped/vbn by/in the/at obsession/nn of/in defeating/vbg Germany/np ./.

This/dt ,/, more/ap than/in any/dti other/ap factor/nn ,/, led/vbd to/in the/at fiasco/nn of/in Allied/vbn-tl intervention/nn ./.
