Introduction by Margaret Thatcher. Signed by the author (Weinberger) on the title page. Caspar Willard "Cap" Weinberger (August 18, 1917 - March 28, 2006) was an American politician and businessman. As a prominent Republican, he served in a variety of state and federal positions for three decades, including Chairman of the California Republican Party, 1962-68. He was Secretary of Defense under President Ronald Reagan from 1981 to 1987. Weinberger was as a California State Assemblyman from 1953 to 1959, and he would go on to serve as Chairman of the Federal Trade Commission and Director of the Office of Management and Budget under Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford. An accomplished businessman, he later became vice president of Bechtel Corporation, and later Chairman of Forbes magazine. He is also known for the Strategic Defense Initiative. Derived from a Kirkus review: Weinberger offers five engrossing accounts of the sort of wars America may be obliged to fight in the years ahead. His first pre-millennial belligerency pits the US against a reunification-minded North Korea in league with Communist China during the spring of 1998. The next conflict brings America to deadly blows with an Iran bent on becoming the Middle East's dominant power. Mexico, governed in 2003 by a radical regime that makes a hemisphere-threatening shambles of the domestic economy, becomes an opponent. Also a revivified Russia whose ultranationalist president decides 2006 would be a very good year to start extending Slavic supremacy throughout Western Europe. Last but not least, America squares off against a Japan determined to recoup its flagging trade fortunes by reestablishing a Greater East Asia Co- Prosperity Sphere. A call to arms by a statesman who wants to ensure that his country is prepared for aggressions an uncertain future may hold. Chris Capell (Maps) (illustrator). Signed.…
