Hunt and Steven I. Levine. This effort unfolded as an imperial project in which military power and the imposition of America's political will were crucial. Devoting equal attention to Asian and American perspectives, the authors follow the long arc of conflict across seventy-five years from the Philippines through Japan and Korea to Vietnam, tracing along the way American ambition, ascendance, and ultimate defeat. They show how these wars are etched deeply in eastern Asia's politics and culture." - Publishers description. 001397793 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001397793 650_0 $$aWorld War, 1939-1945$$zJapan. 001397793 650_0 $$aKorean War, 1950-1953. 001397793 650_0 $$aVietnam War, 1961-1975. 001397793 651_0 $$aAsia$$xHistory, Military$$y20th century. 001397793 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xHistory, Military$$y20th century. 001397793 651_0 $$aAsia$$xStrategic aspects$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001397793 651_0 $$aPhilippines$$xHistory$$yPhilippine American War, 1899-1902. 001397793 7001_ $$aLevine, Steven I. 001397793 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aHunt, Michael H.$$tArc of Empire : America's Wars in Asia from the Philippines to Vietnam$$dChapel Hill : The University of North Carolina Press,c2012$$z9780807835289 001397793 8520_ $$bacq 001397793 85280 $$bebk$$hEBSCOhost 001397793 85640 $$3EBSCOhost$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=422042$$zOnline Access 001397793 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:438730$$pGLOBAL_SET 001397793 980__ $$aEBOOK$$aEBOOK 001397793 980__ $$aBIB 001397793 982__ $$aEbook 001397793 983__ $$aOnline
