Description

Review Marilyn B. Young remains the preeminent historian of war's place in modern American history.--Michael S. Sherry, author of The Shadow of War: The United States since the 1930sThe essays in this collection serve as a durable testament to one of the most important academic critics of US war-making in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.--Susan L. Carruthers, author of The Good Occupation: American Soldiers and the Hazards of PeaceMark Philip Bradley and Mary L. Dudziak have brought together eight published and two unpublished papers from Young's long and illustrious career that provide readers with a wide-ranging introduction to why she was such an influential scholar, teacher, and activist. The editors' thoughtful introduction and Andrew Bacevich's comments in an afterword contribute significantly to the value of the volume and to our understanding of Young, who died in 2017.--Peace & Change As a whole, the book reminds us of how ground-breaking Young's contribution was to the field of US diplomatic and military history. It also illuminates the key themes that she returned to throughout her career, which focused on how war was processed and absorbed into the US national narrative often by glossing over or 'abstracting' its violence.--H-Net ReviewsDrawing from various writings and previously unpublished manuscripts, Bradley and Dudziak present a collection that testifies to the astonishing breadth and depth of Young's career. Her influence on contemporary American history is undeniable, and her strong voice of dissent and activist spirit shine through in her writing . . . Making the Forever War is an excellent introduction to Young's work and stands as a testament to her career.--Strategic Visions Product Description null About the Author Marilyn B. Young (1937-2017) was a renowned historian of American foreign relations and a longtime professor of history at New York University. Her landmark book The Vietnam Wars, 1945-1990 remains a defining work in the field. Mark Philip Bradley is Bernadotte E. Schmitt Distinguished Service Professor of International History and the College at the University of Chicago and author of The World Reimagined: Americans and Human Rights in the Twentieth Century. Mary L. Dudziak is Asa Griggs Candler Professor of Law at Emory University and author of War Time: An Idea, Its History, Its Consequences.
