R. W. V. Van Alstyne Book Review

Alstyne, R. W. V. (1949). THE NORTH ATLANTIC TREATY. Current History, 16, 321-326. Retrieved from http://search.proquest.com.vortex3.uco.edu. Richard W. Van Alstyne is the author of this article but he also went but the name Richard Warner. Warner has his PHD in history from Stanford University and was a professor for seventeen years at Chico State University and taught for twenty years at the University of Southern California. The warrants presented in this article are that in order to be at peace with a lot of people sometimes you have to make sacrifices and arrange agreements with other states and/or countries. This is how NATO came about. Alstyne provides backing by talking about everything that led to the making of NATO. Alstyne states
The warrant that the NATO Information Service provides is that with an organized defensive system that has stability and confidence they have a more stable relationship. The claim from this book is that the alliance has become the main stability and peace for Europe for the last twenty-five years that NATO has been around. With the NATO Information Service being the author of the book they are qualified for making they claims they did because, they are an approved organization of NATO. I find this information very reliable because it is coming straight from a specific organization that is known worldwide and it is not just a random person making claims about NATO. All the information coming from this book is an overload of information and there is nothing noticeable that was left out. NATO Facts and Figures is long enough to give me enough if not more than enough information to help prove my point on all the reasons we have NATO. The author of the book and the publisher happening to be the organization so with saying that the stance of the publisher is the same as the author of this book. NATO Facts and Figures was published in 1976 and though it may not have been published in the last decade it is still relevant to the paper I am going to write because it
Sayers spent six years as an officer of the headquarters of The North Atlantic Treaty and a few years later he was chosen to be apart of the NATO executive management program. Sayers has his maters and his bachelor’s degree. Sayers is addressing everything that has happened overtime to make the co-existence of states to form NATO. Sayers makes the claim there are two different sides to the whole thing. This source is reliable because the author who wrote it is apart of the NATO organization. I do not thing he left anything out because he talks about two different sides to NATO instead of just one. Yes, this source is long enough because it is eight pages of specific detail and it has exactly all the information I need to support the information is going to be in my paper. The publisher of this article is Georgetown University Press and they are dated back to 1964 with more than a thousand articles printed every year. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization: A Study in Institutional Resilience was published only a few years ago in 2011 which is pretty recent still today because NATO is still an on going organization. This source will add to my argument because it talks about more specifics about what happened and not just a broad spectrum about what happened. It goes onto the strategic part of the whole thing and what they had to do to make their case. Since 1950 NATO has made 7 different strategic efforts to help
