272 pages (Hardcover)
A history of U.S. military involvement in the Persian Gulf in 1987 and 1988–a time of burning ships, air strikes, and secret missions–the prelude to the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait, Desert Storm, and the most recent U.S. invasion of Iraq. Based largely on first-hand accounts from veterans of that era, it is an up-close, detailed report from the front lines of a guerrilla war at sea. Many of the dramatic incidents of this period are told in depth, with new information and details never before seen in print.
