Lucas (American and Canadian studies, University of Birmingham, England) examines the American pursuit of the liberation of Eastern Europe from the end of WWII until the failure of the Hungarian Revolution in 1956. He shows how the American vision of freedom led to interventions in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, and details the massive propaganda campaign to persuade the world of the virtues of US possession of the atomic bomb. He explores the most important legacy of the Cold War, the forging of a network linking government and private groups.
