Book excerpt: This study chronicles U.S.-Habsburg relations from the early nineteenth century through the aftermath of World War I.

Phelps demonstrates the influence of the Habsburg government on the United States' integration into the nineteenth-century Great Power System and the influence of American racial politics on the Habsburg Empire's conceptions of nationalism and democracy.
