"Weaving U.S. history into the larger fabric of world history, the contributors to
Crossing Empires de-exceptionalize the American empire, placing it in a global transimperial
context. They draw attention to the breadth of U.S. entanglements with other empires
to illuminate the scope and nature of American global power as it reached from the
Bering Sea to Australia and East Africa to the Caribbean. With case studies ranging
from the 1830s to the late twentieth century, the contributors address topics including
diplomacy, governance, anticolonialism, labor, immigration, medicine, religion, and
race. Their transimperial approach--whether exemplified in examinations of U.S. steel
corporations partnering with British imperialists to build the Ugandan railway or
the U.S. reliance on other empires in its governance of the Philippines--transcends
histories of interimperial rivalries and conflicts. In so doing, the contributors
illuminate the power dynamics of seemingly transnational histories and the imperial
origins of contemporary globality"--from back cover
