"This volume provides readers with access to the primary documents - both foreign and domestic - that reflect the debates that have had such a strong influence on shaping the United States. This resource covers thirty-two key issues and initiatives of the Eisenhower, Kennedy, and Johnson presidencies. An introductory overview of each president's administration provides a useful window through which to assess the specific debates and documents addressed, and each of these individual issues is also supplemented by a brief introductory discussion. Among the issues covered are: Eisenhower's attempt to establish a "new look" for national defense, the Eisenhower doctrine, and the National Defense Education Act.
Kennedy's Alliance for Progress and Peace Corps programs, his role in Cuba, his plans for America in space, and his work on arms control and the Limited Test Ban Treaty are all considered. Finally, Johnson's Civil Rights Act, Model Cities Program, war on poverty, and role in the ground and air wars in Vietnam are given their due. A timeline provides a chronological backdrop for the subject, and recommended readings following each section offer helpful direction for further study."--BOOK JACKET.
