ABSTRACT

Karl Jack Bauer’s The Mexican War (1974) does describe the United States as the aggressor in the conflict and concedes that President James K. Polk was motivated by the desire to expand the borders to the Pacific. Indeed, there was never any real question about this in either the U.S. or Mexico at that time—or later. He justifies this action by asserting that that this type of expansion was inevitable, and if it had not been carried out by Polk’s administration then some other one would have done it eventually. Although the U.S. president preferred to ...

Book Review: The Cold War by John Lewis Gaddis

Introduction

The eventual collapse of the agreement between the USSR, Britain and the United States in 1945 after the end of the World War II set the platform for the cold war. An anti-communist policy, commonly called the Truman doctrine, declared in 1947 by President Truman of the USA spoke clearly of the atmosphere that would prevail (Gaddis 30). The resulting tension between the communist and capitalist ideologies is what came to be known as the Cold War. Since it never resulted into armed confrontation or “blistering” conflict it was referred to as the cold war. Therefore the Cold ...

America’s Vaguest Conflict

Donald Hickey’s history of the War of 1812 closely examines the international diplomatic incidents and political infighting that shaped what would essentially become America’s second war for survival. The international situation, dominated by the conflict between Britain and France, complicated the exchange of commerce between the new American republic and Great Britain. Hickey’s account of the prelude to war, and the war’s prosecution, reveals that the war’s desultory outcome, which ended in America’s survival, was remarkable in itself considering the incompetent military and administrative performance of the Americans.

War is almost as old as human history itself. Even the earliest writings in literature center on conflict: in The Epic of Gilgamesh, the central character goes to the supernatural realm to bring back the secret to eternal life, to bring his friend, who had died in war, back from the grave. The major literary works of ancient Greece either focus on wars between members of two different cultures, as with the Trojan War, or in smaller, more regional conflicts between clans or larger groups: one of the pink elephants in the room for Creon, the regent of Thebes ...
