Mercenaries and War

Understanding Private Armies Today

Sean McFate, National Defense University Press

Discover the world of mercenaries and private military companies with this eye-opening book. You'll learn why assuming they're just cheap alternatives to traditional soldiers is a dangerous mistake. Author Sean McFate shows how these highly trained, for-profit warriors operate like multinational corporations and recruit employees from many different countries. Profit is their main goal, not patriotism, which can make them unpredictable adversaries. If you want to better understand the modern landscape of warfare, don't miss this powerful read.
