Since their first publication, the four volumes of the Cambridge
History of American Foreign Relations have served as the definitive
source for the topic, from the colonial period to the Cold War.
This second volume of the updated edition describes the causes and
dynamics of United States foreign policy from 1865 to 1913, the era
when the United States became one of the four great world powers
and the world's greatest economic power. The dramatic expansion of
global power during this period was set in motion by the
strike-ridden, bloody, economic depression from 1873 to 1897 when
American farms and factories began seeking overseas markets for
their surplus goods, as well as by a series of foreign policy
triumphs, as America extended its authority to Cuba, Puerto Rico,
the Panama Canal Zone, Central America, the Philippines and China.
Ironically, as Americans searched for opportunity and stability
abroad, they helped create revolutions in Central America, Panama,
the Philippines, Mexico, China and Russia.
