The United States stands at a historic crossroads; essential to the world yet unappreciated. Americas decline in popularity over the last eight years has been nothing short of astonishing. With wit, brilliance, and deep affection, Ted Widmer, a scholar and a former presidential speechwriter, reminds everyone why this great nation had so far to fall. In a sweeping history of centuries, Ark of the Liberties recounts Americas ambition to be the worlds guarantor of liberty. It is a success story that America, and the world, forgets at its peril.From the Declaration of Independence to the Gettysburg Address to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the United States, for all its shortfalls, has been by far the worlds greatest advocate for freedom. Generations of founders imbued America with a surprisingly global ambition that a series of remarkable presidents, often Democratic, advanced through the confident wielding of military and economic power. Ark of the Liberties brims with new insights: Americas centurieslong favorable relationship with the Middle East; why Wilsons presidency deserves reappraisal; Bill Clintons underappreciated achievements; how Americas long history of foreign policy immediately touches on the choices we face in 2008. Fully addressing Americas disastrous occupation of Iraq, Ark of the Liberties colorfully narrates Americas long and laudatory history of expanding world liberty.
