World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War

Authors

Jayme Sutton

Abstract

“A breath of fresh air stormed into the Naval War College over the rotting flesh of the undead,” reads the first book-club selection of the President of the Naval War College. Without vili- fying another country or radicalizing any group, World War Z’s zombie pandemic and ensuing global chaos are the vehicle transporting the reader straight into the potential realities of what can happen when the functional- ity and safety of our cultural norms, personal values, societal ethics, and governmental structures are stressed, overwhelmed, and broken.
