All but predicting the September 11 attacks, Pat Buchanan warns that America is inviting terrorist attacks and conflict by engaging in an interventionist foreign policy that is costly, dangerous, and does not serve our own interests.

Anyone who has caught Pat Buchanan's television appearances, or heard his campaign rhetoric, will be surprised at his relatively evenhanded and thoughtful tone as he writes - often quite persuasively - in favor of the restoration of the political, military, and economic independence that largely drove U.S. foreign policy in the 19th century. At the heart of A Republic, Not an Empire is a well-written history of U.S. foreign policy beginning with the end of the American Revolution, going through the First and Second World Wars, Vietnam, and the end of the cold war, up to the superpower's involvement in the Persian Gulf and the former Yugoslavia.

I loved the message of this book. USA needs to leave the empire mindset. Bring the troops home and guard our western hemisphere interests.

Reading this in 2023, it’s incredible how well Buchanan understood where the deeply-flawed US foreign policy was leading us…

Solid US foreign policy history and advice for America

Just about anyone can take something from this book to help retain the Republic our founding fathers envisioned. The next century, 22st, will undoubtedly spell the end of the United States or the envisioned plan of a free country our founding fathers envisioned the rest of mankind to follow.

It is up to all of you and Me to make that difference.

A lesson for the ages
