PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Bold and politically incorrect, An Autumn of War is like a breath of fresh air in pointing to the real causes of terrorist outrages and the need for a decisive response. --Richard Pipes, author of The Russian Revolution Victor Hanson is a national treasure. No one has written with such great prescience about the present war or more accurately predicted the course of events, on the fighting front, at home, and around the world. His wisdom arises from a deep knowledge and understanding of history, ancient and modern. His uncanny accuracy in prediction comes from a full and clear grasp of the facts and the application to them of an informed understanding of human nature and of the character of war. All this he presents in clear, vigorous, and eloquent prose. Every American needs to learn from him. --Donald Kagan, author of On the Origins of War and the Preservation of Peace Together with John Keegan, [Hanson] is our most interesting historian of war. --Jean Bethke Elshtain, author of Women and War
