Manifest Destiny by Barry B. Longyear

The movie Enemy Mine was based on Barry Longyear’s short story of the same name. As most movies based on books go, it was ok but greatly insufficient in depth. The story was much better. This book is a collection of stories under the umbrella theme of Manifest Destiny. Based on our historic performance it sadly rings very true. One can only hope that at some point in time our culture will finally begin to learn something from historic precedents. The stories all center around conflict and primarily military industrial influence. It was a good collection and I recommend it.
