Enemies think twice -- then think again
"Don't
Tread
On Me," by H.W. Crocker, III, is the sort of
history
book that will never find its way into 99 percent of
America
's universities because it starts with two strikes against it. First, it is book about military history. And second, and most importantly, it makes no apologies for American martial success.
Covering the Colonial times to the present, Mr. Crocker paints a picture of Americans with an innate "Scotch-Irish" tendency to love a good fight for the sake of loving a good fight (although I always thought "Scotch" was a drink and "Scots" were an ethnic group). What clearly emerges
from
the pages of "Don't Tread On Me" is that, while Americans love peace, they're ruthlessly efficient in
war
and are not to be trifled with lightly.
I recommend "Don't Tread On Me" as a starter history book for any relative or friend who may have been displaying an interest in history - or in volunteering for the U.S. Armed Forces.
Reviewer: Chuck DeVore is a candidate for U.S. Senate in 2010, a California State Assemblyman, he served as a Special Assistant for Foreign Affairs in the Department of Defense from 1986 to 1988, retired from the Army National Guard as a lieutenant colonel, and is the co-author of "China Attacks."

Every American should read this!
If you have never served in the military READ THIS BOOK. It will truly give you a sincere appreciation for all of our veterans past and present. If you are a veteran or military member it is a must read for PME. This is the reason that we are the strongest country on the globe. It is not economic or political influence. It is not Planes, Tanks, and Ships. It is the
America
n military member. God bless all of our veterans!

Painfully Honest
For anyone educated by today's academia this book is a painful construction of
America
n military and all its politically incorrect might. Don't
Tread
On Me is a page-turner for anyone interested in a chronological, though incomplete,
history
of the most formidable military in history. More recent generations of graduates of American learning institutions would do well to read a historical portrayal of America's Best, sans the airbrush.
