My latest book, The Hollow Crown: Shakespeare on How Leaders Rise, Rule, and Fall, brings together my love of Shakespeare, a knowledge of military and diplomatic history, and experience in government and academic leadership. It interweaves theater, politics, and reflections on the nature of leadership, talking about how power is acquired (by acquisition, intrigue or brute seizure); exercised (by inspiration, manipulation and murder); and how it is lost (through innocence and arrogance, magic and self-deception, or in rare cases, walking away from it). I have behind me thirty-three years as a professor at Johns Hopkins University, including time as Dean of its School of Advanced International Studies, as well as service in senior positions in the Departments of Defense and State. I am now transplanting to the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington DC, where I hold the Arleigh Burke Chair in Strategy, writing about military and foreign policy issues. I am a regular contributor to The Atlantic as well. My other books, Supreme Command, Conquered into Liberty, and The Big Stick, among others, deal with military history, defense policy and civil-military relations.
