What if war isn’t fought for freedom, but for business?
In this explosive anti-war classic, Brigadier General Smedley D. Butler—once the most decorated Marine in U.S. history—delivers a powerful exposé that shook the nation in 1935 and still hits hard today.
After decades of military service around the globe, Butler dared to speak the truth: war is a racket. With sharp insight and unflinching courage, he breaks down how wars are engineered to generate massive profits for corporations and political elites—while ordinary people pay the price.
This updated edition includes:
– A compelling new introduction placing Butler’s message in today’s context
– A thought-provoking epilogue: What Now?
– A curated list of further reading for modern truth-seekers
Whether you’re a student of history, a military veteran, a peace advocate, or simply someone asking “Why do we keep going to war?” — this book is essential reading.
Short. Sharp. Unapologetically honest.
War Is a Racket will change the way you see conflict, patriotism, and power—forever.
