505 0  "Harold Stassen (1907-2001) garnered accolades as the 
       thirty-one-year-old "boy wonder" governor of Minnesota and
       quickly assumed a national role as aide to Admiral William
       Halsey Jr. during World War II. When Dwight D. Eisenhower 
       was elected in 1952, Stassen was named director of the 
       Mutual Security Administration and then became the 
       president's special assistant for disarmament. In this 
       position, Stassen had the power to profoundly shape the 
       country's foreign policy and became influential in early 
       Cold War policy discussions about the limits and uses of 
       conventional and nuclear weapons. In this nuanced 
       biography, Lawrence S. Kaplan demonstrates that Stassen's 
       role in Eisenhower's White House deserves more analysis 
       than it has received from scholars. Stassen came to 
       Washington advocating the total elimination of nuclear 
       weapons, but he quickly came to recognize that this would 
       not happen. He refocused his efforts, working for greater 
       international transparency and communication. The liberal 
       internationalism that Stassen espoused became embedded in 
       Cold War policy for decades, and he consistently provided 
       a voice for peace in an increasingly hawkish national 
       security establishment. Stassen, in many ways, was his own
       worst enemy; his ambition and ego undermined his efforts 
       and clouded his vision. His feuds with Secretary of State 
       John Foster Dulles were legendary, and while Dulles often 
       prevailed in the meeting room, Stassen's vision of nuclear
       restraint was one that Eisenhower shared. Kaplan's study 
       provides a new perspective on nuclear disarmament during a
       critical period in US history and sheds light on 
       Eisenhower's approach to international relations." --
