Dwight D. Eisenhower has often been portrayed as a president who did not personally direct activities of his administration but merely presided over them. According to this view, Eisenhower's role in making foreign policy consisted mainly of accepting recommendations of his secretary of state, John Foster Dulles. In recent years, however, scholars have drawn upon materials from newly opened Ann Whitman File, which is deposited in Eisenhower Library, to cast doubt on validity of this interpretation.' Richard Immerman, for example, has suggested that relationship between Eisenhower and Dulles may actually have been characterized by the type of give and take which indicates a mutual respect and confidence. Fred Greenstein, moreover, has concluded that Eisenhower influenced policy to a far greater extent than was previously believed and that he was well aware of Dulles's shortcomings.2
