The Chosen Nation is a historical book written by Irwin St. John Tucker and published in 1919. The book explores the concept of American exceptionalism and how it has influenced American foreign policy throughout history. Tucker argues that the United States has long believed that it is a chosen nation, destined to lead the world and spread its values and ideals to other countries.The book begins with an examination of the early history of the United States, including the Puritan belief in the city on a hill and the Manifest Destiny doctrine that justified westward expansion. Tucker then goes on to explore how American exceptionalism influenced US foreign policy in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including the Spanish-American War and the acquisition of overseas territories.Throughout the book, Tucker examines the contradictions and complexities of American exceptionalism, including its impact on race relations, immigration policy, and the treatment of Native Americans. He also explores how other countries have responded to American exceptionalism, both positively and negatively.Overall, The Chosen Nation provides a detailed and nuanced analysis of the concept of American exceptionalism and its impact on US foreign policy and domestic affairs. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history, politics, and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
