America In The Shadow Of Empires

The focus of the book is the cost of empire, particularly the cost in the American case ?the internal burden of American global leadership. The book builds an argument about the propensity of external responsibilities to undermine the internal strength, raising the question of the link between weakening and the global spread of American power.
