Dear Mr. President

This book consists of letters spanning the last few years between an Ambassador in Washington, friendly to this country, and his Government’s Prime Minister, seeking to show the Prime Minister what and why we are as we are. The book’s title derives from a letter from the Prime Minister to the President of the U.S., inspired by the Ambassador’s correspondence with the Prime Minister. The letters, while full of admiration for America, are highly critical of the way we handle our international economic and social affairs.
