"The first comprehensive history of America's involvement in the Middle East from George Washington to George W. Bush. Beginning with the Barbary Wars of the eighteenth century and extending to the conflicts of today, the United States has been profoundly involved in the Middle East. America fought its first foreign war there and established its navy to meet a Middle Eastern threat. The region played a seminal role in shaping American identity - from the making of the U.S. Constitution to the writing of "The Star Spangled Banner." Americans also helped define the Middle East by forging its borders and introducing notions of national identity. The Middle East in turn inspired works by some of America's preeminent artists, including Herman Melville, Edith Wharton, and Mark Twain, and lured prominent leaders, among them Ulysses S. Grant, Theodore Roosevelt, and John F. Kennedy. The region also attracted generations of Americans who, impelled by faith, sought to educate, modernize, and proselytize its peoples. Popularly perceived as a land of exoticism and danger, the Middle East has provided the backdrop for innumerable plays, songs, and movies. The object of controversial policies, it has formed the focus of intense public debate. Decision makers throughout the history of the United States have grappled with dilemmas in the Middle East and struggled to surmount its challenges. Power, Faith, and Fantasy tells the remarkable story of America's 230-year relationship with this crucial area. Drawing on a vast range of government documents, personal correspondence, and the memoirs of merchants, missionaries, and travelers, the book reconstructs the diverse channels through which the United States has interacted with the Middle East. The book also examines America's artistic legacy in the Middle East, exploring the dynamic ways in which popular culture in the United States has portrayed the region and its peoples. By distinguishing the recurrent themes in America's Middle East involvement and by tracing their evolution over the course of more than two centuries, the book reveals the continuity that binds this vital narrative in the nation's history. Masterfully narrated and compellingly told, Power, Faith, and Fantasy is a deeply original work by one of our finest historians." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book presents a significant amount of structural, paleomagnetic and magnetic fabric data in the Central High Atlas (Morocco). The authors thoroughly described and analyzed the present-day structure of this intraplate chain through 22 of cross-sections, potential field data analysis and 3D reconstruction. In addition, the authors propose a palinspastic reconstruction of the structure of the basin at 100 Ma (i.e., post-extension and pre-compression) to finally evaluate its Mesozoic and Cenozoic geodynamic evolution. This books presents (1) a unique three-dimensional model at the chain scale, (2) an analysis of the ca. 100 Ma remagnetization, to perform palinspastic restorations of most representative structures, (3) as well as the interpretation of the magnetic fabrics in order to unravel the tectonic or deformation setting that the rocks underwent in different parts of the basin. This book is of interest to structural geologists in Northern Africa, the Mediterranean and Iberia, as well as to those interested in inverted intraplate basins and paleomagnetists from around the planet. Also, this book is intended to help students to understand better the geological evolution of the Atlas and therefore Morocco and surrounding areas. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …
