Abstract

The Great Choice

Guérard, Albert | September 15, 1945 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents two books on U.S. foreign relations. These include "America's Place in the World," by Nathaniel Peffer and "America: Partner in World Rule," by William Henry Chamberlin. The purpose of these two fine studies is to awaken in the American people a sense of their responsibility. Closely parallel, they are complementary. The book by Peffer is the more philosophical of both but never abstract and vague. It is chiefly concerned with general issues and guiding principles. Chamberlin's work is not lacking in thought, but it is mainly a survey of concrete instances.
