Inviting War To America

By Allan L. Benson

Book Overview

Inviting War To America is a non-fiction book written by Allan L. Benson that explores the causes and consequences of American involvement in World War I. The author argues that the United States was not forced into the conflict, but rather was lured into it by a combination of economic interests, propaganda, and political pressure. Benson examines the role of big business in shaping American foreign policy, and the ways in which the media and government officials manipulated public opinion to support the war effort. He also critiques the militaristic mindset that prevailed during this time period, and the devastating impact that the war had on American society and the world as a whole. Through a combination of historical analysis and contemporary commentary, Inviting War To America offers a thought-provoking perspective on one of the most significant events in modern history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
