Drift: Unmooring of American Military Power is a non-fiction book by Rachel Maddow. This book looks at how the use of the military has changed over the past fifty years, moving away from the intent of the Founding Fathers. Ms. Maddow examines the use of the military by presidents beginning with Lyndon Johnson and Vietnam and ending with Obama's use of private enterprise and the CIA to do what has been traditionally the military's job. Drift is an eye-opening look at the military and ways in which we, as a nation, can return to the peace inspired design of the Founding Fathers.
