Publisher Description

Any Kuwaiti citizen old enough to remember can tell you precisely where he or she was on August 2, 1990, when the tanks of Saddam Hussein's vaunted Republican Guard rolled in from the north, capturing the small nation and plunging it into the depths of darkness and fear. That terrible moment captured the world's attention. President George H. Bush's famous words, "This will not stand!" became the resolute call to action that moved nations. His stand against Saddam's aggression was the catalyst for a modern-day miracle, as 39 diverse nations from around the world became united in righting a terrible wrong. Twenty-five years later, The Liberation of Kuwait is the story of a resilient and determined Kuwaiti people, and an unprecedented force of reckoning led by the most modern, professional American military in history.
