After a series of disastrous missteps in its conduct of the war, the White House in 2006 appointed General David Petraeus as the Commanding General of the coalition forces. Tell Me How This Ends is an inside account of his attempt to turn around a failing war. On the ground in Iraq, with General Petraeus and his commanders, the author of the "New York Times" bestseller "Masters of Chaos" reports on the endgame of this controversial war. - The genesis of a civil war -- A failing war, and the decision to surge -- David Howell Petraeus -- The Petraeus team launches -- Fard al-Qanoon, the Baghdad security plan -- The political puzzle -- Downsizing expectations -- The blue spaders into the inferno -- The knights of Ameriya -- The sons of Iraq -- Full-court press -- The September reckoning -- The drawdown begins, and the cease-fire spreads -- To the brink again -- Tell me how this ends.
