You know that student ready to take on the world but not sure how. This book is a roadmap for anyone interested in the U.S. Foreign Service. Ambassador Armbruster believes in long shots. That's his message to the next generation of diplomats. President Obama nominated him to be Ambassador to the Marshall Islands, a little country with big issues. Marine resources, climate change, the nuclear testing legacy... it was a great assignment. Ambassador Armbruster encourages young people, particularly people who have never thought about a career in diplomacy, to give it a shot, no matter how much of a long shot it may seem.

The Foreign Service needs to represent America and all of it's great diversity. How to Become an Ambassador answer the burning question 'what would foreign service life be like for me?' The adventure. The sacrifice. The education. The dedication to the highest ideals. And especially the rewards of service. If you want to be inspired to serve overseas, read this book.
