From the best-selling 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.
John Keegan is the defense editor of the Daily Telegraph (London) and Britain's foremost military historian. He is the author of many best-selling books, including The First World War, Intelligence in War, and The Battle for History. He lives in Wiltshire, England.
Earphones Awards recipient Simon Vance was born in England and worked for the BBC for ten years as a radio news announcer and as a narrator for the Royal National Institute for the Blind in London. Besides narrating audiobooks, he is involved in numerous stage-acting projects in the United States and Europe.
