The sitting chairman of the US House Homeland Security Committee details the most pressing threats to our country, based on his deep knowledge of our national security readiness, and advocates for the action needed to protect us from them.
Congressman MICHAEL MCCAUL represents the state of Texas as a Republican in the US House of Representatives. Born in 1962 and raised in Dallas, he attended San Antonio's Trinity University, and then Harvard. He was elected to Congress in 2005, and then appointed the chaiman of the Committee on Homeland Security in 2013.
"Congressman Mike McCaul has become one of our nation's leading
experts on homeland security. This excellent book gives us a very
us a very useful analysis of dangers we face and the things we must
do to prepare ourselves for the challenges presented to us."
--Rudy Giuliani, Former Mayor of New York City "A critically
important book that every American should read. Congressman McCaul
has captured the very real threats facing our Homeland, the factors
that have contributed to them, and, most important, what we should
do about them. A work of non-fiction, the book reads like a spy
thriller. A reader will not be able to put it down."
-Michael Morell, Former Acting Director and Deputy Director of the
Central Intelligence Agency and author of The Great War of Our Time
"Threats to the homeland didn't end with 9/11. To stop future
threats, you have first to envision them. Chairman McCaul does that
vividly."
- Richard Clarke, Former National Coordinator for Security,
Infrastructure Protection, and Counter-terrorism "Chairman Michael
McCaul shows in careful detail how the evil that still exists in
the world can quickly and stealthily visit destruction on the
United States, its people and its friends. With its eight
frightening (but very plausible) scenarios, Failures of Imagination
should be must reading for anyone responsible for or just concerned
about American security in a turbulent time."
-Michael Hayden, General, USAF (retired), Former Director of CIA
and NSA
"Wow! Scared straight is a phrase I would use to describe Failures
of Imagination. If lack of imagination failed us on 9/11, 2001,
this book, Failures of Imagination, should make all of us sit up
straight and take stock in what we are failing to do against, what
I personally know is a vicious assault on our way of life. Homeland
Security Chairman Mike McCaul's book fills an important gap in the
threats to our homeland better than all of our intelligence
agencies and law enforcement services combined. The threats and
scenarios presented are real and they are here in our country. Take
notice, danger ahead."
- Michael T. Flynn, Lieutenant General, United States Army
(Retired), Chairman & CEO of Flynn Intel Group, Inc.
