Description
"Todd Purdum traces the story of the war in Iraq from the first rumblings after 9/11, to the diplomatic tussles at the United Nations, to the battles themselves and the violence that lasted well beyond the cessation of formal hostilities. And in a new afterword he recounts the high drama of the capture of Saddam Hussein and pursues the persistent questions regarding weapons of mass destruction, flawed intelligence, and preemptive war. President George W. Bush has vowed that the United States would attack its enemies at " a time of our choosing," and Purdum shows in vivid terms what this choice has meant for our now transformed world."--BOOK JACKET.
