Bill Taylor came to know Elvis Presley as few people ever have: in a senior-subordinate relationship. In Germany, in 1958-59, the young private singled out Lt. Taylor as his friend and mentor. This book, filled with never-before-told anecdotes and some newly published photos, tells the story of the eight months Taylor and Presley served together. 32 photos.

This fifth edition of American National Security is a timely update of a classic classroom text, providing contemporary perspectives on limited war, economic challenges to national security, and research and development. It reviews the changing security environment in key regions of the world: Russia, East Asia, the Middle East, Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, and Europe. And it identifies the issues that the United States must face in the next century: peace operations, conflict and arms control, and the widening array of missions undertaken by U.S. armed forces. "We have chosen to emphasize 'power,' broadly defined, as the central dimension of international and national security. This is not to deny that various trends and forces are increasingly pressing states toward more cooperative, less confrontational behavior; rather it is to focus on the fact that on important issues many states―including all the great powers―apply a power calculus in dealing with other international actors."―from the fifth edition of American National Security Praise for previous editions: "A classic text, widely used in universities... It does an exemplary job of explaining the process of defining and implementing national security objectives.
