Heroes: In the Fight Against Radical Islam
by Oliver

Pritchard

caught up in one of the most unexpected battles of the Iraq

 My
War: Killing Time in Iraq
by Colby
Buzzell
My War is a book that will challenge many of the most common

Colby Buzzell, the book's author and a U.S. Army
machine-gunner who did a year-long tour in Iraq, is not the
stereotypical small-town soldier from a Red State. |
 No
True Glory: A Frontline Account of the Battle of Fallujah
by Bing
West
"A remarkably detailed, vivid firsthand account of the
American military experience... West's focus is on the
"frontline," putting the reader at the negotiating table with
U.S. military commanders and Fallujan sheiks, imams, and rebel
leaders; in the barracks; and on the street, fighting hand to
hand, house to house, in some of the fiercest battles of the
Fallujah campaign and the Iraq war." (Booklist) |
 Jawbreaker:
The Attack on Bin Laden and Al Qaeda
by Gary
Berntsen
"The U.S. campaign in Afghanistan against the Taliban and al
Qaeda will certainly go down in history as a brilliantly
executed military victory in an entirely new age of warfare.
But its glory was a bit marred, just as in Operation Desert
Storm, by the failure to kill or capture Dr. Evil." (John
Lehman, Washington Post) |
