Colonial Crucible: Empire in the Making of the Modern American State
Alfred W Mccoy
At the end of the nineteenth century the United States swiftly occupied a string of small islands dotting the Caribbean and Western Pacific, from Puerto Rico and Cuba to Hawaii and the Philippines. Colonial Crucible reveals how this experiment in direct territorial rule subtly but profoundly shaped US policy and practice - both abroad and, crucially, at home.
