The Russians (1976)
 Though written over twenty years ago, this best-selling classic remains a definitive work. Moscow bureau chief for the New York Times in the early 1970s, Hedrick Smith explored the soul and psyche of Russia in a wayfew Westerners have accomplished. This is the story of Russia told in Russian voices-voices that remain relevant as modern Russia struggles to find its place in the world.
The Power Game: How Washington Works (1989)
 Hedrick Smith conducts a probing examination of the Washington power structure to show the shadow government of staff, lobbyists, and the media, as well as the elected government of Congress and the President. Smith tackles the culture of Washington with the same analytical power and anecdotal color that distinguished The Russians. Praised by scholars and policymakers as the definitive work on Beltway politics, The Power Game is used in college courses around the country.
The New Russians (1991, revised 1991)
 From the crises in the breakaway republics to the remarkable rise of Boris Yeltsin, Hedrick Smith delves into the turmoil of a country on the brink of collapse to bring readers the inside stories of Russia's second revolution-the anti-Communist revolution-and the rise of a new generation of politicians and entrepreneurs. Smith describes how Gorbachev launched a revolution that got out of his control.
Rethinking America (1995)
 With America at a crossroads, Hedrick Smith goes inside our nation's schools and businesses to show how our traditional approach to commerce and education is obsolete in the new global economy-and how innovators are succeeding by rethinking America.
The Media and the Gulf War: The Press and Democracy in Wartime (1993)
 America's attention focused in an intense way on the Gulf War, as briefings and bombings filled the airwaves, pictures and stories filled the print media of the world. But did the American people receive the information they deserved and which a free press should guarantee? Would media demands for less control have jeopardized lives? In the Media and the gulf war, edited by Hedrick Smith, these questions are answered by experts on all sides of the issue-members of the media, the military, and the government.
The Pentagon Papers (1972)
 The controversial New York Times series about the Pentagon's secret history of the Vietnam War which the Nixon Administration tried to suppress but which was eventually protected by a Supreme Court ruling. This series, which won the Putlizer Prize for Public Service in 1972, was written by Neil Sheehan, Hedrick Smith, Fox Butterfield and E.W. Kenworthy. The book compiles the Times articles and many once top secret documents.
