Robert W. Smith received a Ph.D. from the College of William and Mary; he teaches the history of American foreign relations at Worcester State College.
Engagingly written and thoughtful.... Smith's study of the
relationship between ideology and foreign policy is persuasive as
well as provocative.
*American Historical Review*
An interesting, valuable, and timely contribution to our
understanding of the ideological roots of American foreign policy
in the early republic. Smith's comparison between Adams, Hamilton,
Madison, and Jefferson illuminates the thought of each figure.
*James H. Read, College of St. Benedict and St. John's
University*
In the first full-scale study of this subject, Smith conclusively
demonstrates that the Founders drew on different ideological
strands in fashioning their foreign policies.
*Stuart Leibiger, LaSalle University*
