NEW YORK — Former Secretary of Defence Jim Mattis has a book coming out this summer, but he warns that it will not be a “tell-all” about President Donald Trump. “Call Sign Chaos: Learning to Lead” will be published July 16, Random House announced Tuesday. The book was under contract before Mattis became defence secretary in early 2017, although it will touch upon events over the past couple of years, a Random House spokesperson told The Associated Press. Mattis announced late last year he was leaving, writing in his resignation letter that Trump had “the right” to have a defence secretary whose views were aligned with his. Trump responded by disparaging Mattis’ leadership at the Pentagon and by stating, falsely, that he had “effectively” fired his defence secretary.
