Two Centuries of U.S. Foreign Policy

Valone has selected 71 documents that have either defined America''s place in the world or reflected a significant episode in the history of U.S. foreign affairs. Each selection is prefaced by brief introductory remarks that place the document in context and is followed by a short list of suggested readings for those interested in pursuing the topic further. Designed primarily to supplement a one-semester introductory level course covering U.S. diplomatic history from its origins to the present this collection can because of the large number of 20th century documents also be used in a variety of upper-level undergraduate courses in U.S. history.
