Description:

From Tom Clancy's Commanders series, this is a first-hand view of winning the Gulf War which became an instant military classic on first publication.This is worldwide number one bestselling author Tom Clancy's deep look into the operational art of war as practised in the Conflict in the Gulf.. Seen through the eyes of one of America's most outstanding commanders, General Frederick M. Franks, Jr. , this is an incisive analysis of the greatest military triumph since World War II. Franks commanded the armour and infantry of VII Corps, the main coalition force that broke the back of Iraq's Republican Guard. He is also the first amputee active-duty general since America's Civil War. Here is the story of the transformation of an army traumatized by the legacy of Vietnam, and the metamorphosis of a man devastated by the loss of a leg in that war. Together the story of this army, that man, and the war they fought have made this a bestseller.
