Synopsis:

Documenting the transformation of the U.S. military from Vietnam to the Gulf War, a history of a generation of officers examines changing ideas about war, ending the draft, reducing racial tensions, and integrating women into the ranks.

Review: "A major work of U.S. military history."

"Recommended without reservation."

"One of the most illuminating military books in recent years."

"A great and much-needed book...exciting, hard-hitting, and on target."

"The best and most accurate history yet written on the rebuilding of American military forces...keenly perceptive, well researched, beautifully written."

"Rebuilding the U.S. Army after the Vietnam debacle was an extraordinary achievement. James Kitfield's account of the feat is vivid, compassionate, and, above all, readable."
