Description
This book offers a candid and unvarnished account of the US military's experience in Iraq, drawing on the personal stories of those who were there. By combining the perspectives of commanders, intelligence officers, army doctors, and ordinary soldiers, Thomas E. Ricks provides a detailed and unsettling picture of the reality on the ground.
The official narrative of the invasion is often at odds with the experiences of those who were involved, and Ricks' book sheds light on the deceit, poor planning, and intellectual failure that characterized the US military's approach to the conflict.
Through these personal accounts, Ricks reveals the true nature of the fighting in Iraq and the plight of ordinary soldiers who were tasked with carrying out difficult and often nightmarish jobs.
