A Time to Fight by Jim Webb

At first I thought this was going to be a snoozefest. I'm pleasantly surprised.

For someone in the Senate to write "...our country has been increasingly calcifying along class lines, in a way we have not seen for more than a century and to an extent that maybe unprecedented in our entire history. This is no longer a simple queston of haves and have-nots. Every social and economic indicator shows that America now has an upper class that has swung exponentially away from the rest of society. To make matter worse, many of those at the very top now tend to view their inordinate success a s simply a function of their innate talent in a brave new world of socioeconomic Darwinism and have become openly consumed by self-justifying greed." -- is wonderful.
