New Brunswick, NJ: Rutgers University Press, (2018). SIGNED hardcover first edition - A book which traces the history of the United States as a military power from the end of World War II to today by a former Air Force navigator and intelligence officer. It "is essential reading for anyone who wonders how America ended up where it is today: with a deeply divided and disillusioned populace, led by a dysfunctional government, and mired in unwinnable wars. It also finds startling parallels between Americas foreign military exploits and the equally brutal tactics used on the home front to crush organized labor, antiwar, and civil rights movements." INSCRIBED on the title page and dated in the year of publication. Photographs, notes, index. 313 pp. ISBN: 978-1978800915.
