"Brooks and Wohlforth have produced a big, important book that will be essential reading for anyone who cares about what America's role in the world should be." -- Peter Trubowitz, author of Politics and Strategy: Partisan Ambition and American Statecraft

"This thoughtful, well researched, and timely book counters the dangerous strategic myths of our era. Brooks and Wohlforth show that America is indeed still great and that the military, economic, and diplomatic investment Washington continues to make to stabilize the international order is both affordable and wise." --Thomas J. Christensen, author of The China Challenge: Shaping the Choices of a Rising Power

"Brooks and Wohlforth correct current calls for retrenchment and isolation with a spirited defense of realistic American internationalism. They analyze the enduring sources of American power and the essential role American influence exerts for peace and prosperity around the world. This book is essential reading for all citizens interested in foreign policy." -Jeremi Suri, author of Liberty's Surest Guardian: American Nation-Building from the Founders to Obama

"America Abroad does an impressive job of advancing the debate over U.S. grand strategy. Brooks and Wohlforth provide crystal-clear distinctions in explaining what constitutes their preferred grand strategy-"deep engagement"-and then systematically build a powerful case drawing on the best available theories and evidence. Not everyone will be convinced, but America Abroad raises the bar in this important policy debate." --Charles Glaser, author of Rational Theory of International Politics

"Brooks and Wohlforth argue that...the United States is the most powerful country in the world, and will remain so for many decades - if not indefinitely. The US has used this power, they argue, to create and sustain an international order that has made it a vastly safer and wealthier country than it would have been otherwise. Though Brooks and Wohlforth didn't intend it as such, their book is a kind of anti-Trump: a direct and devastating riposte to Trump's vision of US foreign policy. And while Trump's ideas come from... well, Trump himself, Brooks and Wohlforth's arguments are grounded in the most up-to-date research on how US foreign policy works." --Zack Beauchamp, Vox

"America Abroad is a carefully argued tract, and worth a careful read."--American Thinker

"Brooks and Wohlforth have produced perhaps the most convincing defense of American power since the Cold War ceased."--The American Conservative
