From Publishers Weekly
Hogan's "ambitious, closely reasoned and strongly supported argument," asserted PW , is that the Marshall Plan was an outgrowth of pre-WW II American business trends and that it attempted to project the American corporative-political economy across the Atlantic.

From Library Journal
Hogan judges the Marshall Plan to be the most successful peacetime foreign policy carried out by the United States in this century. While this is not, perhaps, an especially courageous conclusion, considering our somewhat uneven record, the author's opinion and arguments have merit and so does his assessment of the period encompassing this $12 billion package of postwar aid to Europe. Whereas the United States had the expectation of creating a Europe in its own image, French and British interests had other, more independent intentions. The Marshall Plan ultimately did succeed in creating a stronger, multinational Europe, but it certainly did not do so in a way America had planned. A worthwhile purchase for most libraries, Hogan's work will no doubt become one of the seminal histories of postwar cooperation and development. Jeff Northrup, Birmingham P.L., Ala.
