In A Moment of Crisis, Marion V. Creekmore, Jr.
tells the story of Jimmy Carter's dramatic intervention in
the 1994 North Korean nuclear crisis and shows how Carter
prevented what he had determined was an almost certain war.
Writing with the cooperation of President Carter, and
drawing on a large amount of primary source material that
has never been used before, Creekmore, who accompanied
Carter into North Korea, delivers a gripping narrative of
the former President on one of his most remarkable
missions, a clear-eyed investigation into the controversies
and successes of the mission and others like it, and an
illuminating look at how to best handle North Korea and
other "rogue regimes." This is essential reading for anyone
interested in diplomacy of the highest order, how Jimmy
Carter has accomplished the extraordinary achievements of
his post-Presidency, the circumstances that can lead to
war, and the resolve that it takes to avoid it.
