'Starting with the election from hell, A Nation Unmade by War surveys American exceptionalism in the age of absurdity. As Tom Engelhardt argues, despite having a more massive, technologically advanced, and better-funded military than any other power on the planet, in more than a decade and a half of constant war across the Greater Middle East and parts of Africa, the United States has won nothing, while only contributing to a world growing more chaotic by the second.
From its founding, the United States has been a nation made by wars. With penetrating analysis and characteristic wit, Engelhardt explores whether in this century its citizenry and government will be unmade by them.'
