Fiasco: The American Military Adventure in Iraq

Autor Thomas E. Ricks
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 mai 2007
Cutting through the headlines and spin about thw war in Iraq, this is the first book to give us a true picture of the reality on the ground, through the words of the people there - from commanders to intelligence officers, army doctors to ordinary soldiers. Providing eye-witness accounts that contradict the official stories and figures, they give a chilling picture of the deceit, stupidity, wishful thinking, lack of forward planning and total intellectual failure of those behind the invasion. The result is an extraordinary new insight into the plight of ordinary soldiers doing nightmarish jobs, and the real nature of the fighting in Iraq.
