A campaign traced from opening strike to final day

Rick Atkinson’s account covers the 42-day 1991 Gulf War from its opening night through its conclusion. The scope moves between the battlefield and the decision-making behind it, bringing together bombing missions, firefights, White House strategy sessions, and internal disputes. That combination places military operations alongside the political and organizational pressures surrounding the U.S. war with Iraq in the early 1990s.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers seeking a history of the 1991 Persian Gulf War.
  • Those interested in both military operations and White House decision-making.
  • Readers looking for an account that includes internal conflicts as well as combat.
