Edición de la obra FRANCES ELIZABETH WILLIS

"Frances E. Willis was the first woman to make a career of the U.S. Foreign Service. She started at the bottom of the ladder as a Foreign Service Officer-Unclassified and ended up at the top as a Career Ambassador, serving ambassador to three countries. How she did it in the face of massive gender bias in both the State Department and the Foreign Service, breaking glass ceilings- and glass tables- along the way, is the subject of this biography"--Back cover.
