Paperback. Zustand: Good. While the war on terror has been America's largest and most publicized attempt to root out foreign enemies this century, the quest to identify and destroy real or imagined threats to national security has long been a part of US history. Indeed, since the onset of the United States' overseas empire at the dawn of the twentieth century, it has pursued enemies in places of strategic interest around the globe: the remote islands of the Philippines, the US southern border, hemispheric hot spots in Central and South America, and the greater Middle East.The common depiction of these kinds of foes?private actors who did not formally represent the countries they fought for?has maintained a remarkable consistency over time. The only difference is that enemies who used to be called "bandits" then are now more often referred to as "terrorists." Connoting an illegitimacy of both cause and means, the widespread use of such terms also has served to blunt deeper considerations of US foreign engagements. Drawing on six case studies, Michael E. Neagle spotlights the commonalities of how the United States has leveraged popular understandings of "bandits" to justify incursions abroad as well as rally popular and political support at home.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. America's Forgotten Colony examines private US citizens' experiences on Cuba's Isle of Pines to show how American influence adapted and endured in republican-era Cuba (1902-58). This transnational study challenges the notion that US territorial ambitions waned after the nineteenth century. Many Americans, anxious about a 'closed' frontier in an industrialized, urbanized United States, migrated to the Isle and pushed for agrarian-oriented landed expansion well into the twentieth century. Their efforts were stymied by Cuban resistance and reluctant US policymakers. After decades of tension, however, a new generation of Americans collaborated with locals in commercial and institutional endeavors. Although they did not wield the same influence, Americans nevertheless maintained a significant footprint. The story of this cooperation upsets prevailing conceptions of US domination and perpetual conflict, revealing that US-Cuban relations at the grassroots were not nearly as adversarial as on the diplomatic level at the dawn of the Cuban Revolution.…

No Binding. Zustand: Near Fine. A cinema-used, Finnish poster for the 1948 movie SPRING IN PARK LANE, starring Anna Neagle and Michael Wilding. The film was first screened in Finland in March 1949 - appropriately, at the Ritz Cinema, Helsinki - and there were no further theatrical releases. A big winner at the box office it is apparently one of the highest-grossing British movies of all time. It obviously enjoyed a long run in Finland because - based on presentation only (I have never seen another example) - this does appear to be a reprinting from the era but this is an educated guess only. It could be a first screening poster. The poster was printed by Norbladd & Pettersson and measures 23.5 inches x 16.25 inches (60cm x 41cm) approx, Standard Finnish A2. Extremely thin paper (rule of thumb for Finnish posters - the older they are the thinner the paper). Condition: C8 (VG to Fine) This poster has a folding crease down near the bottom edge and a second across the right corner but none to the middle. Not unduly noticeable. Appears to have been mounted with a small tack at the top (middle) and pulled through at dismounting - - hole at that place above the top sheet-music illustration. No further pinholes. Small nick to bottom edge (less than 1cm). Minor handling creases, mostly to bottom corners. In super condition otherwise considering its frailty and remarkably clean. A lovely 1940's poster of an historic movie and cinema posters for this film are extremely rare. As well as describing the condition of our posters meticulously, we also take great care to research them and establish and provide accurate information concerning dates of issue, theatrical runs etc. Authenticity guaranteed! We are always happy to answer any questions about our listings. We describe all noticeable faults in our posters but for best appreciation of condition please examine the high-resolution images which accompany the listing.…
