About This Item
, Anstey, Leicestershire, England: Cornell University Press, 1969. Paperback. Good. 8vo - over 7?" - 9?" tall. Trade Paperback in Good Condition. Blue cover is clean, worn around edges, has a small scrape on the front, lower left, and a hole-punch in the upper right corner. Soundly bound, square. Minimal underlining and comments towards back of book; notes written on the title page, otherwise pages clean, no creases. In this Beveridge Award-winning study, Walter LaFeber of Cornell University probes beneath the apparently quiet surface of late nineteenth-century American diplomacy, undisturbed by major wars and undistinguished by important statements of policy. He finds that those who shaped American diplomacy believed expanding foreign markets were the cure for recurring depressions. This book is based on the assumption that economic causes were the most important of many forces driving America to world power. 444 pages with bibliography and index. 8.5 x 5.5 inches. Cornell University Press, Ithica and London, 1969.
