Description

'The American Empire' by Amaury de Riencourt is a bold and carefully documented analysis of the rise of America's global power. After the First and Second World Wars which stripped the European empires of their overseas possessions, the United States of America became the heir to "the global throne". From this point on, de Riencourt embarks on a detailed study of the United States's relentless expansion and dominance, becoming in the process a technological, industrial and military superpower spreading across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Simultaneously the author introduces the Soviet Union's equally ambitious imperialist tendencies and the threat posed by Communist China.
