Summary:
"America has a fine tradition, mostly forgotten, of opposition to military values and large military forces. This study of the debate from 1914-1928 documents major events of the period and shows how militarists and anti-militarists contended to persuade Americans which policies were best to preserve national security"-- Provided by publisher.
