'Albright blends history and analysis to make concise, compelling arguments about how the next president can restore America's world leadership, sprinkling it with dry, droll humor?Her insights into how the internal politics of Russia, Japan, China, Afghanistan, Pakistan and other nations affect U.S. interests are particularly engaging.'

Synopsis
Before long, and without intending it, I found that jewelry had become part of my personal diplomatic arsenal. Former president George H. W. Bush had been known for saying "Read my lips." I began urging colleagues and reporters to "Read my pins." It would never have happened if not for Saddam Hussein. When U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Madeleine Albright criticized the dictator, his poet in residence responded by calling her "an unparalleled serpent." Shortly thereafter, while preparing to meet with Iraqi officials, Albright pondered: What to wear She decided to make a diplomatic statement by choosing a snake pin. Although her method of communication was new, her message was as old as the American Revolution-Don't Tread on Me. From that day forward, pins became part of Albright's diplomatic signature. International leaders were pleased to see her with a shimmering sun on her jacket or a cheerful ladybug; less so with a crab or a menacing wasp. Albright used pins to emphasize the importance of a negotiation, signify high hopes, protest the absence of progress, and show pride in representing America, among other purposes. Part illustrated memoir, part social history, Read My Pins provides an intimate look at Albright's life through the brooches she wore. Her collection is both international and democratic-dime-store pins share pride of place with designer creations and family heirlooms. Included are the antique eagle purchased to celebrate Albright's appointment as secretary of state, the zebra pin she wore when meeting Nelson Mandela, and the Valentine's Day heart forged by Albright's five-year-old daughter. Read My Pins features more than 200 photographs, along with compelling and often humorous stories about jewelry, global politics, and the life of one of America's most accomplished and fascinating diplomats., "Jewelry isn't ordinarily a tool of political persuasion, but in this beautiful book, Madeleine Albright, American ambassador to the United Nations and then the nation's first female secretary of state, tells the compelling story of how these small objects became part of her 'personal diplomatic arsenal.'" -- The Chicago Tribune From New York Times bestselling author and former secretary of state Madeleine Albright, Read My Pins is a story and celebration of how one woman's jewelry collection was used to make diplomatic history. Part illustrated memoir, part social history, Read My Pins provides an intimate look at Albright's life through the brooches she wore.

Exploring the use of the pin or brooch as a means of personal and diplomatic expression and featuring a gallery of fascinating photographs, this unique, intimate, and revealing biography offers a whole new side of Secretary Albright, one of our most beloved public servants.

- 2***o (7)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThese skates were in incredible condition! The shipping was quite fast too (about 3-4 days). The skates were better than what the seller had even described and these were a great deal as far as condition and pricing!! The package was nicely boxed, and the skates were bubble wrapped nicely as well which I am sure protected the nice condition of the skates during shipping as well. Overall, I am very pleased with the value of what I got and with this seller! 10/10 would buy from this seller again!
