Description

William P. Snyder & James Brown (ed). By substantially increasing defense budgets, the Reagan Admin. did more than merely underwrite improvements in military forces, it undertook initiatives that changed both the image & reality of America’s national defense. This book examines: the Strategic Defense Initiative, the 600 ship Navy, & the hefty increase in the Defense budget. Critics & supporters of the Reagan Admin. do agree on one point: the Reagan Admin. came into office with the intent of strengthening defense policy. How well the Reagan Admin. succeeded in that effort & the cost of that success are debated here.
