It is a good summary of his new short book entitled, Neither Shall the Sword: Conflict in the Years Ahead (Washington DC: Center for Defense Information, 2005). Michael Lotus sent me the PPS link and pushed me to buy the book, which I didn't have to, because CDI sent me a copy.


I read the book this week during take-offs and landings (yes, 14 in all will do it, as the whole thing is 94 pages stem to stern), and it's a great read. Chet writes with a cleanliness next to Godliness. I will offer a review of sorts soon, maybe this weekend.


For now, check out the slides. Chet's briefs (remember I saw one in Bergen, Norway last year) are awfully good. Too bad no audio. Chet's got this Cracker Barrel voice from the 1930s that's interesting to listen to.
