New Empire: An Interpretation of American Expansion, 1860-1898

Excellent examination of relationship between America's rise first as an economic power and then as a colonial power. LaFeber re-evaluates McKinley. He's was far from a tool used by the powerful, but a very sharp politician he was fully in command of his administration. This book is justifiably famous, and is required reading for anyone wanting to understand America's entry into global politics.
