There is no book quite like National Security and Core Values in American History. Drawing upon themes from the whole of the nation's past, William O. Walker III presents a new interpretation of the history of American exceptionalism, that is, of the basic values and liberties that have given the United States its very identity.

Most important, it led to the abuse of executive authority after September 11, 2001, by the administration of President George W. Bush.
