Winning the War of Words: Selling the War on Terror from Afghanistan to Iraq

Selling War to America begins its examination with the U.S. government's campaign to instigate a war with Spain and ends with a review of the methods the government is using to encourage support for the War Against Terrorism. From these analyses, noting both the blunders and triumphs of the past century, the authors pinpoint the pitfalls and offer the keys to successfully persuading the American public to support wars that must be fought.
