<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A very good book indeed.... It is quietly reasoned, beautifully ordered, and spirited as hell.... [It] is not a book for children, nostalgic or otherwise.--Loren Baritz, <em>The Nation</em><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>William Appleman Williams was one of America's greatest critics of US imperialism. <em>The Contours of American History</em>, first published in 1961, reached back to seventeenth-century British history to argue that the relationship between liberalism and empire was in effect a grand compromise, with expansion abroad containing class and race tensions at home. Coming as it did before the political explosions of the 1960s, Williams's message was a deeply heretical one, and yet the Modern Library ultimately chose Contours as one of the best 100 nonfiction books of the 20th Century.
