Wherever my\r\njudgment is wrong it is not from lack of abundant chance to learn the\r\ntruth.\nExcept in one instancevery early in the bookI have avoided the use\r\nof statistics, in spite of frequent temptation to refer to them to\r\nfortify arguments which must without them appear to be merely the\r\nexpression of an individual opinion.\nThe Avoidance of Entangling AlliancesWhat the Injunction\r\nMeantWhat it Cannot Mean To-dayThe Interests of the United\r\nStates, no less than those of England, Demand an AllianceBut\r\nLarger Interests than those of the Two Peoples are\r\nInvolvedAmerican Responsiveness to IdealsThe Greatest\r\nIdeal of All, Universal Peace: the Practicability of its\r\nAttainmentAmerica's ResponsibilityMisconceptions of the\r\nBritish EmpireGermany's PositionAmerican Susceptibilities.\n\u003cb\u003e ......Buy Now (To Read More)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEbook Number\u003c\/b\u003e: 30549 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Robinson, Harry Perry \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Nov 26, 2009 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat\u003c\/b\u003e: eBook \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage\u003c\/b\u003e: English \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"booksdeli.com","offers":[{"title":"Robinson, Harry Perry,1859-1930 \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43219458097309,"sku":"gb-30549-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/30549.jpg?v=1671526942","url":"https:\/\/booksdeli.com\/products\/the-twentieth-century-american-gb-30549","provider":"booksdeli.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
