The book delves into the paradox of American support for the Greek Revolution contrasted with the non-recognition stemming from the Monroe Doctrine of 1823. It explores the roots of diplomatic neutrality and positions the Monroe Doctrine as its culmination, emphasizing John Quincy Adams' influence. Notably, it highlights the significant attention the Greek War of Independence received in U.S. policy discussions and its near political endorsement. The epilogue illustrates how both the "Greek Fire" and the Monroe Doctrine shaped Hellenic-American relations for nearly two centuries.
