Description

Between 1839-1941, from the time that Germany invaded Poland until Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, Americans engaged in a debate as intense as any in US history. Here, prominent historian Justus Doenecke analyses the personalities, leading action groups and major congressional debates surrounding the decision to participate in World War II. Doenecke places the anti-interventionist movement in a wider framework by focusing on its underlying military, economic and geopolitical assumptions. Doenecke addresses key questions such as: how did the anti-interventionists perceive the ideology, armed potential and territorial aspirations of Germany, the British Empire, Japan and the Soviet Union? To what degree did they envision Nazi Germany as a bulwark against the Soviet Union? What role would the US play in a world increasingly composed of competing economic blocs and military alliances? "Storm on the Horizon" requires readers to re-evaluate their understanding of the United States entry into World War II.
