How to Hide an Empire: A History of the Greater United States

by Daniel Immerwahr

“[Immerwahr’s] book is written in 22 brisk chapters, full of lively characters, dollops of humor, and surprising facts . . . It entertains and means to do so. But its purpose is quite serious: to shift the way that people think about American history . . . Immerwahr convincingly argues that . . . the United States replaced colonies with chemistry,’ and partially ‘substituted technology for territory.’ It is a powerful and illuminating economic argument . . . the book succeeds in its core goal: to recast American history as a history of the ‘Greater United States.’ . . . deserves a wide audience, and it should find one.”
