In sharp, engaging prose, he shows how the young nation strove to maintain its independence in a dangerous international environment where might often made right."--Chris Tudda, historian, Department of State--Chris Tudda "This sprightly survey of American foreign relations in the formative years is a welcome addition to the field. It is a well-written account of the vulnerable young nation in a hostile world. With its inclusion of the most recent scholarship on the period, it should be a useful supplement to an American history class."--Lawrence S. Kaplan, professor emeritus of history, Kent State University, and author of Thomas Jefferson: Westward the Course of Empire and Alexander Hamilton: Ambivalent Anglophile--Lawrence S. Kaplan "Robert W. Smith's new book provides an excellent overview and analysis of early American foreign policy and its role in the nation's history. More than a mere summary, however, this solid book also makes important interpretive points and provides a framework for understanding the early republic. Thus, it will be a valuable resource for scholars and students alike."--Todd Estes, author of The Jay Treaty Debate, Public Opinion, and the Evolution of Early American Political Culture--Todd Estes
