Swords into Plowshares

Part memoir, part anti-war argument, this book draws on Paul’s boyhood during World War II and his decades in Congress to make the case against America’s permanent war economy. He traces how militarism, central banking, and eroding civil liberties reinforce one another, and sketches an alternative built on non-intervention, sound money, and voluntary exchange. More personal than his earlier books, it reads as a summation of the convictions behind his long political career.
