| Review |
"Timothy Garton Ash, draws on an extraordinary range of sources: from unique, personal conversations with Bush, Blair, and Schroder to encounters with farmers in Kansas and British soldiers in rural England; from history, memoirs, opinion polls, and sociological research to personal observations based on a quarter century of traveling in Europe and the United States. |
| Summary |
The result is a book that explains why Washington can never rule today's interconnected world alone, why the new enlarged Europe can realize its aspirations only in a larger, transatlantic community, and how the torments of the Middle East and the world's poor can be addressed only by free people working together.". |
|
"To remain true to itself, Garton Ash insists, the West must go beyond itself: Americans and Europeans have at hand a unique opportunity to advance from the so-called free world of the Cold War to a radically new international order of liberty. And he urges us, with passion that comes from a lifetime of reflection on these issues, to seize that chance."--BOOK JACKET. |
