Battle Against Intervention, 1939-1941

The struggle over President Franklin D. Roosevelt's foreign policy from 1939 to 1941 was one of the most bitter in all American history. This anthology presents the arguments against cash-and-carry, conscription, lend-lease, extending the term of draftees, arming merchant ships, sending convoys across the Atlantic, and economic sanctions on Japan. It also covers the general worldview of many American anti-interventionists, including their perceptions of the major belligerents, the issue of a negotiated peace, limits on presidential powers, domestic consequences of American entry into war and military and economic strategies for the nation's survival.Doenecke, Justus D. is the author of 'Battle Against Intervention, 1939-1941' with ISBN 9780894649011 and ISBN 0894649019.
