This book is much more about wars that fit into the gaps of our knowledge of ourselves as Americans when we'll fight and support them than it is about the three wars(Revolutionary War, Civil War, and WWII) that constitute the bulk of the rhetoric we embrace about when, how, and why we fight wars as Americans. It is one of the more illuminating books on American history I have read in the past two years. Read it.
