Bender, Thomas A Nation Among Nations: America's Place in World History 0809095270 / 9780809095278; Americans are accustomed to telling their country's story as if the nation were naturually autonomous and self-sufficient. In this challenging new work, the historian Thomas Bender asks us to rethink this presumed exceptionalism and propose a fresh and illuminating alternative to the conventional national narrative. Placing American history firmly in a global context, he recasts the historal developments that were central to the marking of the nation and shows why they can be fully understood only in light of America's global entaglements over five centuries. Bender's exciting work focuses on five major events or themes, from "the age of discovery" to American liberalism. This is a passionate, persuasive book that makes clear what damage is done to our self-understanding and to our relations with the world when we fail to consider the full dimensions of American history. Bender boldly challenges us to think beyond our borders. 368 pages including notes and an index. Binding is black cloth. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
