Victoria De Grazia Irresistible empire
America's advance through twentieth-century Europe

It is this little-understood but world-shaking campaign that unfolds in Irresistible Empire, Victoria de Grazia's brilliant account of how American standard of living defeated the European way of life and achieved the global cultural hegemony that is both its great strength and its key weakness today.
