Synopsis

      "An important book . . . 
        that I wish every member of Congress and would-be president would carefully
        study."
        -- George McGovern
      "A timely and valuable
        study that makes a useful contribution to preserving the Constitution
        and our hopes for survival."
        -- Journal of American History
      "To Chain the Dog
        of War does an excellent job of putting together some very complex
        material, and it comes out at a most propitious time."
        -- Arthur S. Miller, Professor of Law, George Washington University
      "A most thorough study. . . . 
        it would be useful is this book could be prescribed to our decision-makers
        as required reading."
