Description

In the mid-nineteenth century, the United States was at most a second-rank power. By the beginning of the twentieth century, almost everyone acknowledged it to be one of the world's great powers. This book tells the story of that transition. First publish in 1961, it is still the only work in any language tracing the Spanish side of the crisis on 1895-1899 and European reactions both to the crisis and to the emergence of what was widely termed "the American peril." It remains a landmark in the international history of the United States.
