Overview
American History The Hidden History of American Wars Eugene G. Windchy reveals the tricks, errors, and secret plans that have taken the American people into unnecessary wars. In order to prevent wars in the future, we need to understand how wars have come about in the past. A harsh light is thrown on our struggles in the Middle East. Did a "policy coup" in Washington demand a series of aggressive wars, as alleged by retired general Wesley Clark? Updating his book Tonkin Gulf, Windchy adds important information about the two controversial naval incidents, which one of them is real, and he tells how President Johnson made the Vietnam War unwinnable. Did a lone wolf kill the archduke Ferdinand and trigger World War I? In Sarajevo, sixteen men were convicted of taking part in the plan. Unknown were the higher ups in other capitals. This multinational, world-shaking conspiracy still is not known to our textbooks and policy makers. In 1917, the allies were saved by America's entry into World War I. Why in 1936 did Winston Churchill say the Americans ought to have stayed home? The Civil War began with Southerners firing on Fort Sumter. Why did they reject an opportunity to take the fort peacefully?
