Jacobson draws upon political documents, novels, travelogues, academic treatises, and art as he recasts American political life. In so doing, he shows how today's attitudes about Americanism -- from Border Watch to the Gulf War -- were set in this crucial period, when the dynamics of industrialization rapidly accelerated the rate at which Americans were coming in contact with foreign peoples.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Frye Jacobson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0809016281\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780809016280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Farrar, Strauss \u0026amp; Giroux-3pl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/16\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.50w x 1.00d","brand":"Matthew Frye Jacobson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43980575801599,"sku":"9780809016280","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_44ba379a-037d-4500-b132-fb6338f747a5.jpg?v=1683250684","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/barbarian-virtues-matthew-frye-jacobson-9780809016280","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
