520    "Former Secretary of Defense Mark T. Esper reveals the 
       shocking details of his tumultuous tenure while serving in
       the Trump administration. From June of 2019 until his 
       firing by President Trump after the November 2020 election,
       Secretary Mark T. Esper led the Department of Defense 
       through an unprecedented time in history--a period marked 
       by growing threats and conflict abroad, a global pandemic 
       unseen in a century, the greatest domestic unrest in two 
       generations, and a White House seemingly bent on breaking 
       accepted norms and conventions for political advantage. A 
       Sacred Oath is Secretary Esper's unvarnished and candid 
       memoir of those extraordinary and dangerous times, and 
       includes events and moments never before told."--
