Scope and Contents

Series 3: Speeches, 1926-1968, is arranged chronologically and includes outlines, notes, clippings and some background material on venues. More often than not, Dulles used notes or outlines when speaking; consequently there are very few full textual copies of his addresses. As a witness to some of the 20 th century's most notable events, Dulles offered his perspective within the limits that his profession permitted him to share. His speaking engagements ranged from a talk on the major strategic problems of the Soviet Union at the Air War College in Alabama to extolling the virtues of public service as a career before the American Whig-Cliosophic Society at Princeton University.
