Customer Reviews

Good Historical View

This book brings some of the items one read about in history classes to a more 'back channel' perspective. Monroe Doctrine and the like are the opening situations, and instead of 'we put a blockade on German ship' it goes it to some of the things that happened to stop a war from breaking out.

Very Thorough Textbook

This book provides a thorough survey of American Foreign Reltaions, great for use as a textbook. Events are covered accurately and in great detail. This is not a great source for any analysis or deep commentary, but serves as a great starting point for any classes in foreign relations. Includes very many illustrations, such as cartoons, maps, and photographs.
