- Synopsis
- At the turn of the twentieth century, the United States seemed poised to achieve a position of world power beyond what the Founding Fathers could have ever imagined. In The American Century and Beyond, the second part of a new split- volume paperback edition of the magisterial From Colony to Superpower, George C. Herring recounts the rise of the United States as a major power after the First World War and well into the new millennium. Examining the nation's decisive involvement in global events, this volume tracks its progress to becoming the world's lone superpower— a unipolar moment that turned out to be strikingly brief. The American Century and Beyond provides readers with the full scope and impact of American foreign policy in the 20th and 21st centuries.
