On August 2nd, 1990 the world woke up to the news that Iraq had invaded Kuwait. This book tells the story of that invasion and the events which unfolded over the next 7 months ending in the rout of the Iraqi Army. When the Iraqis retreated and hostilities were suspended they left the oilfields on fire, over 5000 Iraqi soldiers taken prisoner, and 28000 Kuwaiti nationals missing. The campaign was one of the first modern wars to have been covered in moment by moment detail by the world's media.
