Describes the emergence of the United States as a world power between the years 1890 and 1920 -- their contrivance of the Spanish-American War and gratuitous entrance into World War 1 -- and by filling in the back story of an era in which 'mendacious oligarchy' organised the USA's politics in a manner convenient to its own indolence and greed, Karp offers a clearer understanding of America's current political circumstance.
