<DIV><p>&ldquo;One of my favorite websites.&rdquo;&mdash;Bill Moyers</p> <p>&ldquo;Tom Engelhardt is a national treasure and always worth reading.&rdquo;&mdash;Juan Cole</p> <p>&ldquo;Indispensable.&rdquo;&mdash;Tony Karon</p> <p>&ldquo;TomDispatch is indispensable and irreplaceable.&rdquo;&mdash;Andrew Bacevich</p> <p>&ldquo;TomDispatch is essential reading.&rdquo;&mdash;Amy Goodman</p> <p>Tom Engelhardt, creator of the vital website TomDispatch.com, takes a scalpel to the American urge to dominate the globe. Tracing developments from 9/11 to late last night, this is an unforgettable anatomy of a disaster that is yet to end.</p> <p>Since 2001, Tom Englehardt has written regular reports for his popular site TomDispatch that have provided badly needed insight into US militarism and its effects, both at home and abroad. When others were celebrating the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, he warned of the enormous dangers of both occupations.</p> <p>In <I>The American Way of War</I>, Engelhardt documents Washington&rsquo;s ongoing commitment to military bases to preserve&mdash;and extend&mdash;its empire; reveals damning information about the American reliance on air power, at great cost to civilians in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Pakistan; and shows that the US empire has deep historical roots that precede the Bush administration&mdash;and continue today into the presidency of Barack Obama.</p> <p><B>Tom Engelhardt</B> created and runs TomDispatch.com, a project of The Nation Institute, where he is a fellow. He is the author of a highly praised history of American triumphalism in the Cold War, <I>The End of Victory Culture</I>, and of a novel, <I>The Last Days of Publishing</I>, as well as a collection of his TomDispatch interviews, <I>Mission Unaccomplished</I>.</p></DIV>
