"The March of the Flag," a collection of speeches by Albert J. Beveridge, presents a powerful and influential defense of American expansionism at the turn of the 20th century. Beveridge, a prominent senator and orator, passionately argues for the United States to embrace its destiny as a global power. Through eloquent prose and fervent appeals to national pride, he articulates the rationale behind acquiring overseas territories and extending American influence.
This volume offers a crucial window into the prevailing attitudes and ideologies that shaped American foreign policy during a pivotal era. Beveridge's speeches reveal the blend of economic ambition, racial theories, and notions of manifest destiny that fueled the nation's imperial ambitions. "The March of the Flag" remains a significant historical document, shedding light on the complex legacy of American expansionism and its enduring impact on the world.
