Name: American empire
Author: A. G. Hopkins

American Empire offers a comprehensive scholarship on U.S. history from a global perspective. A. G. Hopkins argues that American expansion, economic growth, and imperial endeavors have closely mirrored the trajectories of European powers throughout three centuries. He analyzes how colonial revolt, post‑independence relations with Britain, the Civil War industrial boom, and the acquisition of Caribbean and Pacific territories reflect broader imperial patterns. The book further discusses how post‑1945 globalization reshaped the nature of territorial empires.
