This book consists of the edited transcripts of the first season of a podcast series titled: The Energy of Empire. The subtitle, The Eagle Spreads its Wings, is specific to this initial season, as it covers the US Empire’s expansion overseas between the years 1893 and 1912. I attempt to both provide the historical context necessary to understand current events, and demonstrate continuity between that previous age and our own.
