Long but good book. This book focused more on politics than on battles. I think the author is a conservative as he portrayed the librial party as the " big bad" party/people. The portrayal was nearly identical to the democrats in the United States and individual state governments. Harrison's liberals tore down the military deverting military spending to social projects, stopped ship construction, cashiered their best military commanders and more. They crippled their space fleet to the point it wasn't able to stop attacks when the "Peeps" renewed hostilities without the Grasons fleet.
In years past, the democrats have down size the US military to critical levels leaving us barely able to defend ourselves. I've repeatedly seen in the 56 years of my life that when a democrat is president, the military get screwed with cuts, then a republican is to president and they spend their term undoing the cuts of the democrats to make the US military strong again.
