Ricks, senior Pentagon correspondent for theWashington Post, puts forth in Fiasco a masterfulreckoning with the planning and execution of the American militaryinvasion and occupation of Iraq, now with a preface on recentdevelopments. Ricks draws on the exclusive cooperation of anextraordinary number of American personnel—including more than onehundred senior officers—and access to more than 30,000 pages ofofficial documents, many of them never before made public.Tragically, it is an undeniable account—explosive, shocking, andauthoritative—of unsurpassed tactical success combined withunsurpassed strategic failure that indicts some of America’s mostpowerful and honored civilian and military leaders.
