A fascinating look at the saga of a unique organization that, against great odds, has kept alive the ideals of the UN in the United States for more than seven decades. Provides a rare glimpse into the internal workings of the UN Association of the United States from its formative years to its merger with the UN Foundation in 2010. This volume not only serves as an authoritative history of an important organization, but also provides important insights into network-based organizing and governance as it is evolving today.
