The Fight of Our Lives

‘The Fight of Our Lives : Knowing the Enemy, Speaking the Truth & Choosing To Win The War Against Radical Islam’ by William Bennett and Seth Leibsohn not only reflects the failures of America in the war on terror but also attempts to formulate some strategies for victory.

I usually don’t select political books but I am very glad I gave this one a shot. This book is well written and it doesn’t lose the reader in complicated political jargon or policy. Bennett and Leibsohn also make an effort to be as even-handed as possible in their critique of American policy makers. Contrary to the modus operandi of many conservative writers today, to simply take aim at the current administration through President Obama and cast as much blame on him as possible. ‘The Fight of Our Lives’ is not one of those books as there is a fair amount of criticism of the past administrations as well, whether Republican or Democrat.

An excellent read without political overtunes and recommended for people of all walks of life.
