Spread-Eagleism

By George Francis Train

Book Overview

Spread-Eagleism is a book written by George Francis Train, a 19th century American businessman and political activist. The book is a critique of American foreign policy and imperialism, particularly in regards to the United States' relationship with Great Britain. Train argues that American leaders have adopted a ""spread-eagle"" attitude towards foreign affairs, seeking to expand American influence and power at the expense of other nations. He also criticizes the British government for its role in promoting imperialism and colonialism around the world. Throughout the book, Train calls for a more peaceful and cooperative approach to international relations, based on mutual respect and understanding between nations. The book was originally published in 1867 and remains a valuable historical document for understanding American attitudes towards imperialism and foreign policy during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
