Description

"Christopher J. Fettweis, a noted professor of security studies and strategy, offers us a surprisingly positive plan for how America can overcome the national malaise that has gripped the country since our lengthy involvement in Iraq. In anticipating the return of American troops, Fettweis, drawing on rich examples from world history, informs us that America needs to prepare itself for an acrimonious period as our nation comes to terms with the larger implications of our withdrawal from Iraq. Believing that we risk a downward spiral of accusations and recriminations such as we have not seen since Vietnam, Fettweis reminds us that defeat for a great power hurts twice as much as "winning feels good.""--Jacket.
