Review of 'Gangsters of Capitalism' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Highly recommend this book.
My dad was a marine, and took pride in that fact. I didn't know Much about Butler until I came across his "War is a Racket" speech. This book is a great biography.
It's not really about Butler, though. It's about the imperialism he fought for and then fought against. It's about how the US created a kitty of problems in the name of profit, and how we keep doing that.
