The Brothers: Dethroning the King's of War is a gripping and insightful biography that delves into the lives of John Foster Dulles and Allen Dulles, two immensely powerful brothers who led the United States into a series of foreign adventures during the 1950s.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of their extraordinary lives and how they shaped America's role in the world.

With a unique blend of biography and cultural analysis, Kinzer explores the hidden forces that shape the national psyche, from religious piety to Western movies, and how these influences informed the Dulles brothers' actions. The book sheds light on the violent campaigns launched by the Dulles brothers against foreign leaders they saw as threats to the United States, leading to long spirals of violence in countries such as Guatemala and the Congo.

With its engaging narrative and thought-provoking insights, this book will leave readers with a new appreciation for the complexities of American foreign policy and the powerful forces that shape it.
