Book Description/Synopsis:
From 2003 through 2010, more than 200,000 men
and women were deployed in Iraq .
For seven years they fought ferociously in the blistering sands in the Land
Between the Two Rivers. Some fought for pride or survival, some to bring
democracy to a forsaken land that has known only tyranny and strife. Scores of
books have been published about the war, most criticising the strategies and
execution. Some have been personal memoirs capturing the heroism and sacrifice.
Here U.S. Army LTC Darron Wright, a proven combat leader, joins forces with
author Mike Walling to lift the veil on the Iraq War, revealing the build-up of
troops; the equipping, training and planning; the capture of Saddam Hussein;
the formation of the new Government; and the last patrol. Through vivid stories
and military documents, this title provides readers with a first-hand account
of the full conflict.
