  For six hundred years, the nations of Europe and North America have periodically attempted to coerce, invade, or conquer other societies. This title examines Western imperialism's complex relationship with technology, from the first Portuguese ships that ventured down the coast of Africa in the 1430s to America's conflicts in the Middle East.
