At War with Ourselves has descriptive copy which is not yet available from the Publisher.

Balanced historical account of the first year

I enjoyed the honest assessment of the policy making process with Trump and the National Security team.

Teamwork

It is often difficult to work with the smartest, purest person in the room. For a man who preached teamwork, it is disappointing that he could not work with the team of Kelly, Mattis and Tillerson who seemed to work well with one another...

Interesting perspective

Excellent story about the role of the National Security Advisor to former President Trump. Well organized & compelling story. Highly recommended

Actual reportage

I feel for this general. His motivation was patriotic and sincere. He found himself in an utterly chaotic administration dealing with Trump’s petulance and with the caregivers at the presidential bassinet. At war with ourselves is a way of saying Trump is at war with himself. Trump may have a good idea in the international scene (like South Korea should pay more for its protection), but between idea, research, planning and implementation, there is this incredibly delusional and destructive personality the sets the circus-like environment in which highly skilled and experienced people are trying to do their jobs. Trump is ineffective as a leader. Worse, he is a team destroyer. Thank you for a clear narrative that allowed me to be a fly on the wall and thank you for your gargantuan effort.

Excellent thematic review of HRM's term

Glad McMaster took the time to prepare a balanced account. A good companion to Battlegrounds.
