An American Diplomat: How It Happened takes readers on an extraordinary, real-life journey across the globe—from the tense streets of Tehran to the vibrant markets of São Paulo, from Cold War Vietnam to the oil-rich corridors of Riyadh. More than a memoir, this is a powerful, eyewitness account of 20th-century diplomacy at its most human and impactful.
Told by a U.S. diplomat who lived through it all, the book reveals the personal side of international service—where global decisions intersect with local lives, and one individual's actions can ripple across continents. With vivid, first-hand stories from 14 countries in four regions, the author shares dramatic episodes of cultural exchange, economic negotiation, and political tension—some reading like a spy novel, yet grounded entirely in truth.
This isn't secondhand history. Most of the material comes straight from the author's own experience—unfiltered by bureaucracy and brought to life with insight, humility, and sharp observation. Limited use of official documents ensures authenticity without overshadowing the personal narrative.
Perfect for readers passionate about global affairs, American foreign service, or the untold moments behind headline events, An American Diplomat: How It Happened is an inspiring, eye-opening look at what it truly means to serve your country—and the world.
