MSNBC talk show host Rachel Maddow has been appearing on other shows to promote her first book, Drift: The Unmooring of American Military Power (Crown; BOT Audio; ebook and audio on OverDrive). On The Daily Show last night, she told Jon Stewart that, as much as she hates to write, she needed the long form of a book to lay out her argument that we have become a nation that wages perpetual war.

Janet Maslin reviews the result in the New York Times; Drift by Rachel Maddow of MSNBC Traces American Militarism.

Drift is currently at #8 on Amazon’s sales rankings.
