Guardian Bookshop Notes:

Using interviews with top officers in Iraq and the on-the-ground reportage, Ricks documents the inside story of the war. Many of the top officials actually opposed the invasion in 2003, and almost all of them were critical of how the war was fought in the following years. Follow up to "Fiasco", which sold 35,000 copies in paperback.

Publisher's description:

Presents an account of the insurgency within the US military that led to a radical shift in America's strategy in Iraq - and the bloody implementation of that strategy on the ground.
