History help: "Savage Wars of Peace" by max boot

[yellowdoyle]

Any history majors out there read this book?

I need to do some studying for an essay on it.

What is the main thesis, and the points used to support it? What is the authors basic idea behind the small wars the US rages...
what does the author think about vietnam?

Anyone out there offer any help on this? Seems like a fairly common book in US history classes.
