In \u003cb\u003eThe Iraq War\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003eJohn Keegan offers a sharp and lucid appraisal of the military campaign, explaining just how the coalition forces defeated an Iraqi army twice its size and addressing such questions as whether Saddam Hussein ever possessed weapons of mass destruction and how it is possible to fight a war that is not, by any conventional measure, a war at all. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDrawing on exclusive interviews with Donald Rumsfeld and General Tommy Franks, Keegan retraces the steps that led to the showdown in Iraq, from the highlights of Hussein's murderous rule to the diplomatic crossfire that preceded the invasion. His account of the combat in the desert is unparalleled in its grasp of strategy and tactics. The result is an urgently needed and up-to-date book that adds immeasurably to our understanding of those twenty-one days of war and their long, uncertain aftermath.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Keegan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/24\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781400079209\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage Books Edition\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43176813658249,"sku":"9781400079209","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_f2d517f2-8e5d-487b-884d-87502210ea4c.jpg?v=1733215458","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/the-iraq-war-the-military-offensive-from-victory-in-21-days-to-the-insurgent-aftermath-9781400079209","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
