A finalist for the 2008 National Book Critics Circle Award for Nonfiction, this prize-winning and critically acclaimed history uses foreign relations as the lens through which to tell the story of America's dramatic rise from 13 disparate colonies huddled along the Atlantic coast to the world's greatest superpower.

Robert Fass narrates George C Herring’s stunning history of successes and sometimes tragic failures with calm engagement, capturing the fast-paced narrative that illuminates the central importance of foreign relations to the existence and survival of the nation, and highlights its ongoing impact on the lives of ordinary citizens.

From Colony to Superpower is the most recent volume in the peerless Oxford History of the United States, which was described by the Atlantic Monthly as “state of the art” and “the most distinguished series in American historical scholarship.”

Please note: The individual volumes of the series have not been published in historical order. From Colony to Superpower is number XII in The Oxford History of the United States.

Wow a very indebted look at Foreign Policy of the United States. It flowed well and was easy to listen to. The author candy coated something the U. S. did and laid too much criticism on others. Showing an internationalist bias. All in all well worth a listen.

Extremely thorough, but with some biases.

It was quite informative to hear a panoramic view of US history from a foreign policy perspective. And surprisingly apolitical until reaching the modern era.

In the last chapter covering the George Bush III presidency, the author's view abruptly changed from neutral to a liberal progressive globalist interpretation. Which was disappointing, and a sad commentary on the current state of elite academia.

Strongly recommended for anyone interested in either US or world history, or in gaining an understanding of how we got to the world of today.

A different take...

This book takes each step of American policy with detail while remaining to the points that are important. Any person who enjoys history and wants a large scope of the presidents actions and this country's actions abroad then look no further than this book.

A fair summary of the facts

IF you want the full gamut of US foreign policy since we threw out the Brits (yikes I am one of them!) well here it is in all its glorious detail. Make sure you listen on long trips, it will help pass the time and is full of detail. Enjoy

Was a bit of a slog... so hang in there worth it!
