James Clarke Chace ( October 16, 1931-October 8, 2004 ) was an eminent historian, writing on American diplomacy and statecraft.

His 12 books include the critically acclaimed Acheson: The Secretary of State Who Created the American World ( 1998 ), the definitive biography of former Secretary of State Dean Acheson.

In a debate during the 2000 presidential primary, George W. Bush referred to Chace's Acheson as one of the books he was reading at the time.
