About
From the bestselling author of The First World War and Intelligence in War comes the most up-to-date and informed study yet of the Iraq War.
John Keegan, whom the New York Review of Books calls "the best historian of our day," now brings his extraordinary expertise to bear on perhaps the most controversial war of our time. In exclusive interviews with Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld and General Tommy Franks, John Keegan has gathered information about the war that adds immeasurably to our grasp of its causes, complications, costs, and consequences.
The Iraq War is authoritative, timely, and vitally important to our understanding of a conflict whose ramifications are as yet unknown.
"[Keegan is] at once the most readable and the most original of living historians."
"A brief outline that is authoritative."
"Our greatest modern military historian."
"Keegan has long been revered as a brilliant military historian with a gift for recounting the individual experiences of battle while simultaneously explaining broader strategic objectives…Essential reading for understanding the ongoing conflict."
