From Journalistic Accounts Like Fiasco And Imperial Life In The Emerald City To Insider Memoirs Like Jawbreaker And Three Cups Of Tea, The Books About America'S Wars In Iraq And Afghanistan Could Fill A Library. But Each Explores A Narrow Slice Of A Whole: Two Wars Launched By A Single President As Part Of A Single Foreign Policy. Now Noted Historian Terry Anderson Examines Them Together, In A Single Comprehensive Overview.Shortly After The Terrorist Attacks Of September 11, 2001, President George W. Bush Told Advisor Karl Rove, 'I Am Here For A Reason, And This Is How We'Re Going To Be Judged.' Anderson Provides This Judgment In This Sweeping, Authoritative Account Of Bush'S War On Terror And His Twin Interventions. He Begins With Historical Surveys Of Iraq And Afghanistanknown Respectively As 'The Improbable Country' And 'The Graveyard Of Empires,' And He Examines Us Policies Toward Those And Other Nations In The Middle East From The 1970S To 2000. Then Anderson Focuses On The Bush Administration, Carrying Us Through Such Events As The Terrorist'S Attacks Of 9/11, The Invasion Of Afghanistan And The Siege Of Tora Bora, The 'Axis Of Evil' Speech, The Invasion Of Iraq And Capture Of Baghdad, And The Eruption Of Insurgency In Iraq. He Ranges From Rpgs Slamming Into Abrams Tanks To Cabinet Meetings, Vividly Portraying Both Soldiers In The Field And Such Policymakers As Dick Cheney And Condoleezza Rice. Anderson Describes The Counterinsurgency Strategy Embodied By The 'Surge' In Iraq, And The Simultaneous Revival Of The Taliban. He Concludes With An Assessment Of The Prosecution Of The Wars In The First Years Of Barack Obama'S Presidency.Carefully Researched And Briskly Narrated, Bush'S Wars Provides The Singlevolume Balanced History That We Have Waited For. This New Paperback Edition Takes The Story Through The First Obama Term, Covering Our Exit From Iraq And The Ongoing Drawdown In Afghanistan.
