xi, [3], 306 pages. Index. Signed by author. Inscribed on fep. "Charles Timothy "Chuck" Hagel (born October 4, 1946) is an American politician who is the 24th United States Secretary of Defense. He served as a United States Senator from Nebraska from 1997 to 2009. A recipient of two Purple Hearts while an infantry squad leader in the Vietnam War, Hagel returned home to start careers in business and politics. He co-founded Vanguard Cellular and served as president of the McCarthy Group, an investment banking firm, and CEO of American Information Systems Inc. Hagel was first elected to the United States Senate in 1996. He was reelected in 2002, and retired in 2008. He took office on February 27, 2013 as his predecessor Leon Panetta stepped down. Hagel previously served as a professor at the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University, chairman of the Atlantic Council, and co-chairman of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board. Senator Chuck Hagel has long been admired by his colleagues on both sides of the Senate floor for his honesty, integrity, and common-sense approach to the challenges of our times. In America: Our Next Chapter, Hagel offers a hard-hitting examination of the current state of our nation and provides substantial, meaningful proposals that can guide America back onto the right path. Basing his suggestions on thorough research and careful thought, as well as on personal insight from his years as a political insider and decorated war hero, he discusses domestic issues including the health care crisis, immigration, and Social Security reform. He confronts foreign policy problems, including China's economy; control of U.S. debt; India's and Pakistan's nuclear capabilities; and Iran's aggressive stances. Hagel asks the tough questions and delivers straight answers to America's most pressing problems. This is a serious, honest, and, ultimately, optimistic look at our nation's future, from an American original. First edition [stated]. First printing [stated].
