White House and Pakistan: Secret Declassified Documents 1969-1974 - New York Oxford University Press 2002 - xxviii,659 p. HB 25x18 cm.

This book is an invaluable addition to original source material relating to the subcontinent. It contains over 150 hitherto highly confidential documents of Nixon's presidency, covering Dr Kissinger's now celebrated trip to Beijing from Islamabad in July 1971, the events that lead up to the Indo-Pak war over East Pakistan in December 1971, and the period of the populist Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's administration as President and subsequently Prime Minister. Each document has been fully annotated and supported by useful footnotes. The book also has a lengthy, well written introduction covering US-Pakistan relations from the years 1947-1969.
