A journalist, diplomat, and writer, William Christian Bullitt (1891-1967) negotiated with Lenin and Stalin, Churchill and de Gaulle, Chiang Kai-shek and Goering. He took part in the talks that ended World War I and those that failed to prevent World War II. While his former disciples led American diplomacy into the Cold War, Bullitt became an early enthusiast of the European Union. From his early (1919) proposal of disassembling the former Russian Empire into dozens of independent states, to his much later (1944) advice to land the American troops in the Balkans rather than in Normandy, Bullitt developed a dissenting vision of the major events of his era. A connoisseur of American politics, Russian history, Viennese psychoanalysis, and French wine, Bullitt was also the author of two novels and a number of plays. A friend of Sigmund Freud, Bullitt coauthored with him a sensational biography of President Wilson. A friend of Bullitt, Mikhail Bulgakov depicted him as the devil figure in The Master and Margarita. Taking seriously Bullitt's projects and foresights, this book portrays him as an original thinker and elucidates his role as a political actor. His roads were not taken, but the world would have been different if Bullitt's warnings had been heeded. His experience suggests powerful though lost alternatives to the catastrophic history of the twentieth century.Based on Bullitt's unpublished papers and diplomatic documents from the Russian archives, this new biography presents Bullitt as a truly cosmopolitan American, one of the first politicians of the global era. It is human ideas and choices, Bullitt's projects and failures among them, that have brought the world to its current state.

Overall good quality for the price.
Size: 48W x 32L, Color: Carbon
Overall I’ve been happy with these jeans. They have a tight fit when washed and putting them on but loosen up shortly after wearing them. I’m in between sizes so 46 fits snug and 48 basically falls to my ankle if I didn’t have a belt after they loosen up. Most pairs have lasted me 1-1.5 years roughly before they all seem to tear at the crotch area, front thigh areas or near belt loops wear i grab to pull them up. I primarily have 5-6 pairs for work and use them once a week with regular washing once a week. I do a lot of walking and squatting for work and am regularly exposed to water.
Occasionally I do get a pair that tear in the crotch area within a month or two but for the most part can expect 1-1.5 years before replacing. I would purchase again considering cost and average use i get out of them.

Perfect Fit, Durable, and Stylish!
Size: 44W x 32L, Color: Smoke
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect Fit, Durable, and Stylish!
I’ve been wearing Wrangler jeans for years, and they never disappoint. The fit is spot-on—comfortable around the waist and hips, with just the right amount of room through the legs. The denim feels tough and durable, yet soft enough for all-day wear.
What I really like is how versatile they are. I can wear them to work, out in the yard, or even on a casual night out. They hold their shape after multiple washes and don’t fade like cheaper brands. The stitching is solid, and the pockets are deep enough to actually hold a phone or wallet without feeling bulky.
Overall, Wrangler jeans deliver quality, comfort, and value. If you’re looking for jeans that can handle real-life wear while still looking sharp, these are the ones. Highly recommend!

Good fit for a slender build
Size: 38W x 36L, Color: Dark Stonewash
These jeans fit my husband pretty well. He is very tall and has a slender back side so these aren’t to baggy for him. They wash up nice and are a good thick denim fabric. They are very durable and hold up to whatever he gets into. I feel like they are a good value for the price and will continue to buy them for him in the future. Clothing can be difficult for him to find so we are both very happy with these

They fit my thick thighs and bottoms and comfort like no other
Size: 44W x 32L, Color: Dark Denim
I want to cry these are so comfortable. Never in my fat bottomed adult life have I ever initially put on a pair of jeans and felt so at home.
Will report back on durability in a few months.
