Description:
DeConde (history, University of California, Santa Barbara) offers a historical account of how presidents from Washington to Clinton have asserted their privilege as commander in chief, examining their penchant for using military might unilaterally and their reasons for doing so. He explains how executive authority has evolved so that US presidents exercise greater control over foreign affairs and military matters than most other heads of republican governments, and reveals how presidential machismo has thrived as modern media and the American people celebrate executive accomplishments in foreign affairs.
