ABC-CLIO STEALS FROM THEIR AUTHORS
ABC-CLIO STEALS FROM THEIR AUTHORS, PAYS THEM NOTHING, AND ROBS THEM BLIND. DO NOT PURCHASE BOOKS FROM THEM OR FROM THEIR SUBSIDIARIES. BOYCOTT THESE THIEVES!!!

Review:
On second thought...
A reader from Bend, Oregon On second thought, after looking more closely at Grossman's work, I see what a marvelous and spectacular book it is. I will recommend it to all my friends as a fantastic source on the Persian Gulf War.

Review:
Fact or Fiction ?
This book reads great like a fictional novel. Why ? Its sources are contradicted by many other books on the subject.

Excellent Handling of the War!
Dr. George Byrnes, University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee I am a professor of history, and I can say that this is one of the finest works on the Persian Gulf War I have come across. I read Harry Summers' "Persian Gulf War Encyclopedia," and while I was impressed with its handling of subjects, and giving a broad overview of the conflict, Grossman's war far exceeds Summers and then some. Grossman's work, without me being facetious, is fantastic. His knowledge of the subject, his use of biographical material not found every day, and his cross-references, as well as the major use of documents, graphs, tables, and other ephemera to describe the war and its history is just plain amazing. I was in awe of this work. And any amateur picking it up for the first time, just to get a primer on the subject, will find themselves in awe as well.

Fantastic!
In doing a report for my college history class, I came across this work, and found the information to be full of facts, to be highly informative, and the pictures were eye-popping! Their were incredible cross-references, and I got an A+ on the report. I would recommend this book to anyone who needed to access information on the Persian Gulf War!
