This extraordinary argument against war by an unexpected proponent is relevant now more than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginally printed in 1935, War Is a Racket is General Smedley Butler’s frank speech describing his role as a soldier as nothing more than serving as a puppet for big-business interests. In addition to photos from the notorious 1932 anti-war book \u003ci\u003eThe Horror of It\u003c\/i\u003e by Frederick A. Barber, this book includes two never-before-published anti-interventionist essays by General Butler. The introduction discusses why General Butler went against the corporate war machine and how he exposed a fascist coup d’etat plot against President Franklin Roosevelt. Widely appreciated and referenced by left- and right-wingers alike, this is an extraordinary argument against war - more relevant now than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Feral House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47117985120496,"sku":"9780922915231","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780922915231_p0.jpg?v=1763857001","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780922915231","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
