- William Walker and Manifest Destiny in Central America

af Michel Gobat
Empire by Invitation af Michel Gobat
Bag om Empire by Invitation

Michel Gobat traces the first U.S. overseas empire to William Walker, a believer in the nation's manifest destiny to spread not only westward but abroad. In the 1850s Walker and a band of expansionists migrated to Nicaragua to free the masses from allegedly despotic elites. But what began with promises of liberation devolved into a reign of terror.
