Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from From Isolation to Leadership: A Review of American Foreign Policy
The first edition of this book appeared in October, 1918, a few weeks before the signing of the Armistice, when the United States was at the high tide of its power and in?uence. In view of the subsequent course of events, some of my readers may question the propriety of the original title. In fact, one of my friends has suggested that a more appropriate title for the new edition would be From Isolation to Lead ership, and Back. But I do not regard the verdict of 1920 as an expression of the final judg ment of the American people. The world still waits on America, and sooner or later we must recognize and assume the responsibilities of our position as a great world power.
