Industry Reviews
"This is contemporary history of a vivid and urgent sort, and Ricks has produced a book that deserves to be read by any American who realizes that something other than today's economic news also is of vital interest to the nation."
(02/10/2009)

"[T]he dominant impression left by THE GAMBLE...is one of the devastating consequences of an ill-conceived and ill-planned war--an unnecessary war of choice, waged with too few troops and no overarching strategic plan, a war that was going badly but was allowed to continue along the same unfruitful path by a White House 'in denial' about its downward trend."
(02/10/2009)

"If you enjoyed FIASCO, thrilled to have your prejudices about the clueless Bush administration confirmed, it's your responsibility to read THE GAMBLE to have some prejudices challenged....[Ricks] doesn't idealize Petraeus...but it's hard not to come away admiring what the controversial general accomplished in just two years."
