Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Inscribed by Lt. Gen. Edward L. Rowny to Col. Mike Duggan on title page. Softcover. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Reading crease to front wrap. Clean, unmarked pages. *Autographed by author.* "Lt. Gen. Edward L. Rowny was a hardline arms control adviser to five American presidents. Gen. Row…ny graduated from West Point. He commanded battalions in Italy during World War II and participated in the Korean War. He later championed arming helicopters for battle, creating an airborne cavalry that he helped implement in Vietnam for counterinsurgency operations. In the late 1940s Gen. Rowny began studying the Russian language and Soviet negotiating techniques at Yale University. This positioned him to play a meaningful role in U.S. nuclear policymaking when he took on quasi-diplomatic positions with NATO during the Cold War. In 1971 he was appointed the US representative to Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT) and held this post under three presidents: Nixon, Ford and Carter. After the election of President Reagan, General Rowny was appointed to the rank of Ambassador as the President's chief negotiator on Strategic Nuclear Arms (START). During his second term, President Reagan appointed Rowny his Special Advisor on Arms Control. He was awarded the Presidential Citizen Medal.". Signed.

Trade paperback. Condición: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. vi, 374, [2] pages. Illustrations. Inscribed on title page by Ed Rowny. This is a combination of his autobiography and a biography of his first boss John Elliott Wood. Wood was considered the best trainer in the Army. Wood gave him increasing responsi…bilities which resulted in his being promoted ahead of his contemporaries. Wood's examples of professionalism and character had a profound influence over his career. Highlights of this exciting story include: Why attending the 1936 Olympics changed the course of my life, His first assignment in the 41st Singing Engineers, How he became General Douglas MacArthur's spokesman, How Col. Wood's example of moral courage convinced me to retire in protest after the signing of the unverifiable SALT II Treaty It covers the story of an astonishingly varied career that includes service in the combat engineers, commander of an infantry division, pioneering in the new techniques of armed helicopters, and finally Military Representative to the SALT Treaty with the Russians. Edward Leon Rowny (April 3, 1917 - December 17, 2017) was a United States Army Lieutenant General of Polish extraction. He was a commanding officer in World War II and Korea, a military advisor to five U.S. presidents and a negotiator on the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START). General John Elliott Wood was a commander of the 92nd Infantry Division at the end of World War II. Rowny earned a BS from Johns Hopkins University in Engineering, and held degrees from West Point, Yale (MAs in Engineering and International Affairs) and American University (Ph.D. in International Studies). He became his spokesman and one of the planners of the landing of Inchon, which forced a North Korean retreat and enabled the taking of Seoul. Rowny air dropped a bridge to cross a chasm permitting the rescue of the surrounded Marines and Army troops at the Chosin Reservoir. He was in charge of the evacuation of U.S. troops which rescued one hundred thousand North Koreans who wished to join South Korea.
