The book critically analyzes the historical myths that shaped U.S. containment policy during the Cold War, challenging the notion that lessons from past diplomatic events, such as nineteenth-century power dynamics and key agreements like Munich and Yalta, were applicable. Anderson contends that the historical record contradicts these assumptions, offering a fresh perspective on how misconceptions influenced American foreign policy during a pivotal era.
