Overview: In this sweeping narrative, Schweikart and Dougherty offer a proudly unapologetic account of global history from 1898 to the end of World War II — told through the lens of American exceptionalism. As the U.S. rises from a regional power to a global force, the authors chart the political, military, and economic currents that shaped the first half of the 20th century.
Covering pivotal events such as the Spanish-American War, World War I, the Great Depression, and World War II, the book emphasizes how American principles — liberty, free enterprise, and individualism — influenced not just national policy but the fate of the modern world. Contrasting Western values with the rise of authoritarian ideologies like communism and fascism, the authors frame the U.S. as a bulwark of freedom in a century of escalating conflict.
Designed for readers who reject moral relativism and embrace a value-driven reading of history, this volume positions America not as a passive observer but as a decisive actor in the shaping of the modern age — from Manila Bay to Hiroshima.
