The book explores the evolution of U.S. strategic thinking regarding East Asia from the eighteenth century to the present. Michael J. Green identifies a central theme: the persistent fear of a rival power potentially using the Pacific to isolate the U.S. This concern underscores the importance of the ocean as a vital route for trade and the dissemination of American values. Through historical analysis, Green illustrates how these strategic considerations have shaped U.S. policy and actions in the region.
