Maximalist: America in the World from Truman to Obama

From Lyndon Johnson to Henry Kissinger to George W. Bush, the U.S.’s dominant role in global affairs has been wrought with divisive decision making, clashes between friends and allies, and leaders’ internal struggles to find the narrow path between underperformance and over commitment. Stephen Sestanovich explores the dramatic results of American global primacy built on these anxious foundations and unearths the backroom stories and personalities that bring American foreign policy to life.
