Synopsis
This soldier's eye view of the 2007-2008 surge in Iraq focuses primarily on the role played by the soldiers of one infantry battalion--the 2-16-- and their efforts to restore order and fight the insurgency. Based in Baghdad, under the command of Col. Ralph Kauzlarich, the soldiers experience the extreme dangers of war, and suffered many losses before gaining ground against the enemy. David Finkel's old account stands out among the growing list of books on the war in Iraq.

Industry Reviews
"...Finkel's keen firsthand reportage, its grit and its impact only heightened by the literary polish of his prose, gives us one of the best accounts yet of the American experience in Iraq."
(07/27/2009)

"Like [Ernie] Pyle, Finkel brilliantly captures the terrors of ordinary men enduring extraordinary circumstances....Finkel has made art out of a defining moment in history. You will be able to take this book down from the shelf years from now and say: This is what happened. This is what it felt like."
(10/11/2009)

"David Finkel...does a stunning job of bringing us inside [the soldiers'] lives, hearts, and minds."
