About This Book

A series of lectures provides a practical account of the United States diplomatic and consular services, describing organizational structure, grades and rank equivalencies with military officers, and salary-based classifications. It outlines selection and appointment procedures and recent reform measures including competitive examinations, and details consular duties such as correspondence with the State Department, passports and visas, the exequatur, commercial representation, and relations with naval authorities. Chapters contrast consular and diplomatic functions, discuss the service's role in promoting trade and national interests abroad, and include appendices with tables and a synopsis of commercial treaties and consular postings.
