Description and Table of Contents

Description

According to the author, the recent Gulf War was brought on not by the clash of national interests, but by the intense personal rivalry between George Bush and Saddam Hussein. To support his thesis, Hilsman examines the history of the Persian Gulf region, then traces the events leading to the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait and the U.S.'s decision to send troops to Saudi Arabia.
