Excerpt from An Introduction to the History of American Diplomacy The plan is apparent from the Table of Contents, except that it may be explained that, to save space, books and series which treat of more than one period are placed in the list for the first only. Whether a plan is successful or not can be determined only by use. That here employed would doubtless prove cumbrous were the scale larger, but some experience justifies the hope that it will prove convenient.

Excerpt from The Principles of American Diplomacy The present work incorporates substantially the entire text, with few alterations or amendments, of the volume published by the author in 1905 under the title American Diplomacy: Its Spirit and Achievements. The narrative in that volume, however, embraces few incidents that occurred later than 1903. The years that have since elapsed have been marked by important events, some of which are destined to be highly influential in shaping the future course of the foreign policy of the United States. The present work brings the history of that policy down to date. The object of the author in the preparation of the original work, as well as in its revision, has been to set forth and explain the fundamental principles by which the diplomacy of the United States has been governed. Domestic policy and foreign policy are seldom wholly diverse, and foreign policy is in the main profoundly influenced by local interests and ideals. Consequently, just as the internal development of each nation presents some distinctive phase or phases, so we may expect its foreign policy to bear distinctive marks by which it can be identified.

Excerpt from American Diplomacy: Its Spirit and Achievements IN the present volume there is reproduced, with some revision and amplification, a series of arti cles that appeared in H arper's Magazine; and one chapter - the fourth - has been added. The primary object of the work is_ to give, not a chronological narrative of international transactions, but rather an exposition of the principles by which they were guided, in order that the distinctive purposes of American diplomacy may be understood and its meaning and influence appreciated. Nothing could be more erroneous than the supposition that the United States has, as the result of certain changes in its habits, suddenly become, within the past few years, a world-power. The United States has in reality always been, in the fullest and highest sense, a world-power; and the record of its achievements in the promulgation and spread of liberal and humane doctrines is one in which no American need hesitate.

Excerpt from American Diplomacy This book is intended as a comprehensive and balanced, though brief, review of the history of American diplomacy. It is hoped that it will prove useful both to the student in the classroom and to the general reader, and will help to diffuse a knowledge of our diplomacy at a time when it is becoming increasingly important that public opinion should be internationally minded. While it is for the most part based upon an independent study of the sources, it is not presented as a contribution to knowledge but rather as a condensation of ascertained conclusions. The footnotes, therefore, contain few specific references to support the text, but rather suggest to the reader material for further study; either the more important sources, which in the case of diplomatic history are exceptionally readable, or those accounts and monographs which are most useful.

Excerpt from American Diplomacy in the Orient Although there is a vast amount of literature on Asiatic subjects, there exists a recognized need of a work covering the topics embraced in the present volume. The great development of the industrial resources of the country, the necessity of larger markets in Asia, and the recently acquired territorial possessions in the Pacific Ocean, have given new interest and importance to the international relations of the United States with the Far East. Under these conditions, it seemed desirable to have in consecutive order a brief history of the diplomatic intercourse of this government with the Orient, in order to form a correct estimate of the policy which has controlled the American people in their contact with the countries in that quarter of the globe. The author has the more cheerfully undertaken the task from a conviction that a narrative of that intercourse would reflect great credit upon his country, and in the hope that it might stimulate the patriotism of its citizens, and lead them to a more ready support of their government in the discharge of its difficult and enlarged responsibilities.

Excerpt from American Diplomacy: And the Furtherance of Commerce This book is based on two courses of lectures. The first series, on our Consular and Diplomatic Ser vice, was given at Johns Hopkins University, and also at Cornell University, in the winter of 1885. My object then was to explain the actual workings of one department of our Government, about which there seems to be much ignorance and misunderstand ing. My desire was to set forth the usefulness and the needs of these services to young men who were shortly to be called upon to perform the duties of citizens. My only qualification was a deep interest in the welfare of my country and in a service in which I had spent seventeen years.

Excerpt from Dramatic Moments in American Diplomacy The public apathy in regard to our foreign policy and the cheerful indifference shown by the majority of our people towards the Diplomatic Service has had a baleful influence upon our country. Even since the disclosures of Germany's designs in the world war have turned attention violently towards the realm of world politics, and thrust the slumber ing questions of our international rights and duties into the glare of newspaper headlines, the discussion thus aroused in our press and in our legislatures has revealed a comprehensive ignorance of the first prin ciples of our foreign relations. It displays a total disregard for more than a century of painstaking upbuilding by that successful and farseeing body the American Diplomatic Corps. It is not and could not be the object of this volume to give a chronological history of the diplomatic achievements of the United States. My purpose is rather to present in simple form a few of the most striking incidents in the service - to picture the out standing figures and big dramatic actions in our dealings overseas which should be common knowl edge to all Americans, but is not.
