Written by leading historians and political scientists, this
collection of essays offers a broad and comprehensive coverage of
the role of war in American history.
Addressing the role of the armed force, and attitudes towards it,
in shaping and defining the United States, the first four chapters
reflect the perspectives of historians on this central question,
from the time of the American Revolution to the US wars in Vietnam
and Iraq. Chapters five and six offer the views of political
scientists on the topic, one in light of the global systems theory,
the other from the perspective of domestic opinion and governance.
The concluding essay is written by historians Fred Anderson and
Andrew Cayton, whose co-authored book The Dominion of War: Empire
and Liberty in North America, 1500-2000 provided the common reading
for the symposium which produced these essays.
America, War and Power will be of much interest to students and
scholars of US military history, US politics and military history
and strategy in general.
