Review:
"A provocative critique by one eminently qualified to make it."--Kirkus Reviews

"If officials in Washington would read just one book, this is it. It should scare us into action."--Fareed Zakaria, author of The Future of Freedom

"America the Vulnerable will grip you, intrigue you, frighten you and inspire you. Flynn is a genuine expert."--Norman Ornstein, resident scholar, American Enterprise Institute

"Stunningly detailed. Unsettling but necessary reading for all Americans deeply concerned about the future security of our nation."--Warren Rudman, former U.S. Senator, co-chair, the United States Commission on National Security for the 21st Century
