A key element of the American dream is an unwavering belief in its uniqueness. Somehow, it has become an article of faith that the United States emerged from the political mists of 1776 as a fully formed and unparalleled political entity without a past and with a special destiny. This volume provides an important corrective to this received wisdom about the US and an original insight into its 'Special Relationship' with the UK. Author Tom Arms explains how the United States was the result of political, social, economic, philosophical, and religious developments that preceded the arrival of the Pilgrim Fathers by centuries and which continued to be the overwhelming influence on the political development of America during the colonial period and beyond.
