A small percentage of the text is devoted to a tiny amount of correspondence that proves nothing, and the rest of it is criticism of Kissinger (which is obviously not new).<p>The &quot;ties&quot; are basically the bare minimum you&#x27;d expect between Kissinger and any Secretary of State. They seemed to communicate impersonally and only every few years, and they also seemed to see each other in impersonal ways.
