Поредица "Van Nostrand Anvil Books". * ABOUT THIS BOOK: In the texts of more than eighty documents, ranging from the ; Declaration of Independence to the Treaty on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, this Anvil Book charts the intriguing course of American foreign policy. Professor Brockway's introductory notes, brief but pungent, trace America's changing. concepts of her place in international affairs. For the first time in inexpensive form, this volume brings together every basic • document concerning America's struggle to establish herself as a secure and independent nation, her long history of isolation, and the accumulated pressures which have finally led,' this country to assume its full responsibility as a world power with interests on every continent. ** ANVIL BOOKS, under the general editorship of Louis L. Snyder, make a unique and valuable contribution to the fields of history and the social sciences. In each title a distinguished scholar offers an original analysis of a major problem area, incorporating the most recent research. For ready reference to source materials, each book includes a selection of pertinent documents, many from neglected or hard-to-find sources. Modestly priced, each is brief, handy, and readable. A complete listing of the ANVIL BOOKS now available appears on the final page of this book. LOUIS L. SNYDER, general editor of ANVIL BOOKS, is Professor of History at the City College of The City University of New York, where he has been teaching since 1933. A graduate of St. John's College (Maryland), he received his doctorate from the University of Frankfurt am Main, Germany, in 1931. Dr. Snyder has written or edited numerous books, including The Dynamics of Nationalism; The Imperialism Reader; The War: A Concise History, 1939-1945 (available in British, Japanese, Danish, Swedish, and Dutch editions); A Survey of European Civilization (2 volumes); The Meaning of Nationalism; and German Nationalism. He was co-editor (with Richard B. Morris) of the best-seller, A Treasury of Great Reporting.
