Robert E. May's 426-page book 'Manifest Destiny's Underworld: Filibustering in Antebellum America' examines private military expeditions in 19th-century America. The study, published in 2002 by the University of North Carolina Press, investigates the origins, motivations, logistics, and cultural impact of these illegal schemes. It argues filibustering was linked to slavery debates, damaged U.S. foreign policy, and ironically limited territorial expansion.
