Résumé

An incisive portrait of the American landscape that shows how geography continues to determine America's role in the worldBook Club Pick for Now Read This, from PBS NewsHour and The New York Times . "There is more insight here into the Age of Trump than in bushels of political-horse-race journalism."-The New York Times Book Review (Editors' Choice)At a time when there is little consensus about who we are and what we should be doing with our power overseas, a return to the elemental truths of the American landscape is urgently needed.
In Earning the Rockies, New York Times bestselling author Robert D. Kaplan undertakes a cross-country journey, traversing a rich and varied landscape that still remains the primary source of American power. Traveling west, in the same direction as the pioneers, Kaplan witnesses both prosperity and decline, and reexamines the history of westward expansion in a new light: as a story not just of genocide and individualism but also of communalism and a respect for the limits of a water-starved terrain.
Concluding at the edge of the Pacific Ocean with a gripping description of an anarchic world, Earning the Rockies shows how America's foreign policy response ought to be rooted in its own geographical situation. Praise for Earning the Rockies"Unflinchingly honest .
