Reviews for Debating American Exceptionalism
"This first-rate account focuses on the debate over the Philippines just after the Spanish-American War, examining the arguments, pro and con, concerning US imperialism. The book is particularly strong on matters of definition and organization. Highly recommended." - CHOICE
