Description

Sir Peter Westmacott's memoirs offer an insider's account of life in the upper echelons of the diplomatic and political worlds. Spanning over four decades, his career took him to various postings around the world, including Ankara, Paris, and Washington. A professional diplomat's day is often misunderstood as being filled with glamorous events, but Westmacott reveals the realities of their work. He recounts his experiences working in a rapidly changing global landscape, from the last decade of the Cold War to the post-9/11 era. Through his account, Westmacott defends the relevance of diplomacy in an age of instant communication and social media, highlighting recent successes of British diplomacy.
