"This third edition reiterates and reinforces the author's argument that America's ground forces have grown too small, and too isolated from the national mainstream, to sustain the kinds of war government policies have accepted. The resulting tissue of unsavory improvisations has been and is likely to remain a formula for slow-motion disaster."

"Adrian Lewis's The American Culture of War is, first of all, a superb account of U.S. military history since World War II. Equally noteworthy is Lewis's deep reflection on the cultural, social, and political transformations of the American way of war and the stresses they have placed on American democracy. An important, stimulating, and timely book!"
