Back Door To War: The Roosevelt Foreign Policy, 1933-1941 - Hardcover

Back Door To War: The Roosevelt Foreign Policy, 1933-1941 is a historical book written by Charles Callan Tansill. The book provides a detailed account of the foreign policy of President Franklin D. Roosevelt during the years leading up to the United States' entry into World War II. Tansill argues that Roosevelt's policies were guided by his desire to involve the United States in the war, despite his public statements to the contrary. The book covers a range of topics, including Roosevelt's relations with Great Britain and other European powers, his efforts to aid the Allies before the United States officially entered the war, and his role in the events leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor. Tansill also examines the political and economic factors that influenced Roosevelt's foreign policy decisions, as well as the opposition he faced from isolationists and other critics. Back Door To War is a controversial book that challenges many widely held beliefs about Roosevelt's foreign policy. It has been praised by some historians for its detailed research and analysis, while others have criticized it for its partisan tone and selective use of evidence. Nevertheless, it remains an important work for anyone interested in the history of U.S. foreign policy during World War II.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
