Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Flaw in Our Armour
Fully prepared - for those words are the essence of General Knox's arguments. The nation that is fully prepared for war need fear no foe, and in all probability will never be attacked. It is the inadequately guarded nation, with vast possessions and wealth, which excites the envy and cupidity of other countries, and which is liable and likely to be some day surprised and despoiled.
This state of unpreparedness is the Flaw in our Armour, and we are indebted to Sir William Knox for pointing it out so clearly and incisively.
