Black demonstrates that the Interior Department has had a far larger, more invasive, and more consequential role in the world than one would expect."-Brian DeLay, author of War of a Thousand DesertsWhen one thinks of the story of American power, the Department of the Interior rarely comes to mind. Yet it turns out that a government agency best known for managing natural resources and operating national parks has constantly supported and projected America's imperial aspirations.Megan Black's pathbreaking book brings to light the surprising role the U.S. Department of the Interior has played in pursuing minerals around the world-in Indigenous lands, foreign nations, the oceans, and even outer space. Black shows how the department touted its credentials as an innocuous environmental-management organization while quietly satisfying America's insatiable demand for raw materials. As presidents trumpeted the value of self-determination, this almost invisible outreach gave the country many of the benefits of empire without the burden of a heavy footprint.
