description: In the Times of the Americans traces the lives and thoughts of an impressive group of American leaders who, over the course of less than a century, moved the United States from its positions as a resolutely isolated nation, wary of "foreign entanglements," to pre-eminence in international affairs. David Fromkin, shows how this improbable fraternity---disparate in background, politics and personality---shaped and educated Americans to realize that they has something unique to contribute to the world.
