"Haunted Victory: The American Crusade to Destroy Saddam and Impose Democracy on Iraq" explores the dynamic trajectory of beliefs, actions, and their consequences in what will forever be debated as among the most controversial and costly operation in U.S. history in terms of American security, power, wealth, and honor. While many others have written about the Iraq War, William Nester unveils the moral dilemmas that entangled the George W. Bush administration and the American public through each stage of planning, selling, fighting, and attempting to end the Iraq War. He includes vivid revelations of the administration's private tugs-of-war over whether to invade Iraq and then how to fight that war. Nester pulls no punches and discloses who deserves credit for what went right and who deserves condemnation for what went wrong. In his engaging style, Nester has written a page-turner. General readers, students, and experts alike will eagerly welcome Haunted Victory for its concise and comprehensive analysis of the key facets of the Iraq War.
