"Todd S. Purdum traces the war in Iraq from the first rumblings after 9/11, to the diplomatic recriminations at the United Nations, to the battles themselves and their aftermath. He rolls out the whole canvas, showing how the individual "slices" fit together into a single drama." "As the war's narrative unfolds, Purdum also introduces us to the men and women who waged it, including: Paul Wolfowitz, the deputy secretary of defense who saw in Iraq the opportunity to remake the Middle East; Dominique de Villepin, the French foreign minister who questioned the need for military action; Eric Schwartz, the lieutenant colonel who led the Army's Task Force 1-64 on its thunder run into Baghdad and stayed on to police Iraq during the dangerous postwar months; Ronald Young, David Williams, and Jessica Lynch, soldiers who braved capture by Iraqi troops in the early days of the fighting; and George W. Bush, the president whose family legacy was entwined with Iraq and who made the decision to begin and end the war with dramatic aerial displays."--BOOK JACKET.
