Introduction 1. The "Divine Mission": War in the Philippines 2. Crusade for Democracy: Over There in the Great War 3. The Good War: Fighting for a Better Life in World War II 4. War in Korea: "The Front Line in the Struggle between Freedom and Tyranny.
Surveys the bureaucratic mistakes--including poor weapons and strategic blunders--that marked America's entry into World War II, showing how these errors were overcome by the citizens waging the war.
The first comprehensive treatment of how the United States has handled the final stages of its conflicts-from World War I to Iraq-spoiled repeatedly by leaders' failures to plan clearly for what to do when the guns fall silent. Concerned with not repeating past errors, our leaders miscalculate and prolong the conflict or invite unwelcome results. In his penetrating analysis of past, present, and future wars, Rose suggests how to break this cycle.
Americans love war. We’ve never run from a fight. Our triumphs from the American Revolution to World War II define who we are as a nation and a people. Americans hate war. Our leaders rush us into conflicts without knowing the facts or understanding the consequences. Korea, Vietnam, and now Iraq and Afghanistan define who we are as a nation and a people. How We Fight explores the extraordinary double-mindedness with which Americans approach war and articulates the opposing perspectives that have governed our responses throughout history: the “crusade” tradition, or our love of grand quests to defend democratic values and overthrow tyrants; and the “quagmire” tradition, or our resistance to the work of nation-building and its inevitable cost in dollars and American lives. How can one nation be so split? Studying conflicts from the Civil War to the present, Dominic Tierney uncovers the secret history of American foreign policy and provides a frank and insightful look at how Americans respond to the ultimate challenge. And he shows how U.S. military ventures can succeed. His innovative model for tackling the challenges of modern war suggests the possibility of enduring victory in Afghanistan and elsewhere by rediscovering a lost American warrior tradition.

The Patriot movement is under attack by many entities within our own circles. Whether it be from the alt-left or the alt-right, the fake news, or radical groups there is one thing for certain. They want to destroy our way of life as Americans and to do that they paint Patriots as the bad guys. In this book, we look at ways in which this movement is killing itself and take a look at those groups and people who are against us. Once you have protected your country and its Constitution, you never want to see anything happen to it. It's obvious that the author wrote his book out of that love for this country.
