Preparedness: The American Versus The Military Program is a book written by William Isaac Hull in 1916. The book explores the concept of preparedness in the United States, particularly in relation to military readiness. Hull argues that the American approach to preparedness is fundamentally different from the military program, which prioritizes a strong standing army and military intervention abroad. Hull argues that the American approach to preparedness should prioritize domestic defense and the protection of American citizens, rather than foreign military intervention. He also emphasizes the importance of civilian involvement in national defense, advocating for the creation of a civilian reserve force that can be called upon in times of crisis. Throughout the book, Hull provides historical context for the debate over preparedness, including the Spanish-American War and World War I. He also critiques the military-industrial complex, arguing that it prioritizes profit over national security. Overall, Preparedness: The American Versus The Military Program is a thought-provoking examination of American military policy and the role of preparedness in national defense. It remains relevant today as the United States continues to grapple with questions of military readiness and national security.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
