The Last Inaugural
Autor Michael Willard Bathen Limba Engleză Paperback
Army Brigadier General Patrick Henry Barrick is a throw-back to another era. Rising up through the ranks to command the storied 82nd Airborne, he refused to participate in the typical politics required for advancement. His greatest attribute-or most fatal flaw-is that his troops will follow him into hell.
Draconian defense cuts promised by the new President-elect seek to undermine America's overworked military forces. A daring mission into Chinese airspace reveals a long-time American ally has been sacrificed by the ambitious man about to be sworn in as Commander in Chief. Planning to retire with his beloved and soon-to-be deactivated 82nd Airborne, Barrick faces the most difficult decision of his career: join the embryonic coup d'etat against the U.S. government or face putting down the rebellion.
His wife, Annie, is more than the woman behind the man; she stirs him to the fight. But the lives of all the people closest to Barrick will be forever changed before the task is done. Like their minutemen forefathers, Barrick and the members of his military council must act swiftly to offer the country one last, best chance at restoring faith in America's promise.
An eerily prescient scenario, "The Last Inaugural" poses an essential challenge:
What if the most dedicated, best-equipped leaders in the world were compelled to honor their oath to defend America against all enemies-foreign AND domestic?"
