Career

Peraino's first book, Lincoln in the World: The Making of a Statesman and the Dawn of American Power, about Lincoln's foreign policy, was released in October 2013. In Foreign Affairs magazine, Walter Russell Mead called it "an important step toward a richer and more useful understanding of the American past," and the Washington Post described it as "revealing and fresh ... There is much here that will interest even those steeped in the vast Lincoln literature." The Daily Beast named it one of the "Best Books on President Lincoln." From 1999 to 2010, Peraino was a writer for Newsweek magazine, where he reported from around the world and was a finalist for the Livingston Award for his foreign-affairs writing.

His second book, A Force So Swift: Mao, Truman, and the Birth of Modern China, will be released in September 2017. He is represented by Amanda Urban at ICM Partners.
