War on Saddam - John Keegan

The boldest tank dash in recent military history across hundreds of miles of scorching desert, the largest-ever use
of targeted air missiles expressly calculated to 'shock and awe', and the faltering battle to win hearts and minds are
among the extraordinary features of the campaign to topple Saddam Hussein's regime in Iraq.

This comprehensive illustrated account, introduced by award-winning military historian John Keegan, lifts the lid
on what really happened day by day during the conflict -from the failed initial strike on Saddam to the extraordinary
toppling of his effigy in the heart of Baghdad. The twenty-one days that it took coalition forces to overcome organised
opposition set new standards for warfare in the 21st century and raise fundamental questions about the direction of military capability in the future.
