AMERICAN FOREIGN RELATIONS

BY

QUINCY WRIGHT, PH.D.

PROFESSOR OF INTERNATIONAL LAW
IN THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA

"The qualities indispensable in the management of foreign negotia-
tions point out the Executive as the most fit agent in those
transactions; while the vast importance of the trust, and the operation
of treaties as laws, plead strongly for the participation of the whole
or a portion of the legislative body in the office of making them."
-The Federalist
