About this product

Product Information

Amidst all of the criticisms of America's war in Iraq, one essential voice has remained silent . . . until now. In his groundbreaking new memoir, Wiser in Battle , LTG (Ret) Ricardo S. Sanchez, former Commander of Coalition Forces in Iraq, reports back from the front lines of the global War on Terror to provide a comprehensive and chilling exploration of America's historic military and foreign policy blunder. With unflinching candor, Sanchez describes the chaos on the Iraqi battlefield caused by the Bush Administration's misguided command of the military, as well as his own struggle to set the coalition on the path towards victory. Sanchez illuminates the fallout of the communication breakdown between the leadership on the battlefield and the politicians in Washington. The first book written by a former on-site commander in Iraq, Wiser in Battle is essential reading for all who wish to understand the current war and the American military's role in the new century.

  • Wars are fought thru memos by burrocrats, here's how.

    This book proves the adage that Generals tend to plan to fight the last war over again. Sanchez was a career officer for a military that has sworn off violence. Apparently the Vietnam War legacy has turned the USA into a pacifist nation that has no stomach to mount an invasion and get the job done. Far too much micro management occurred w/ Rumsfelt who must have wanted to play soldier from a desk. Any war cannot be fought from behind a desk. Nor can it be fought w/ an eye to exiting the war and making peace w/ the enemy. Too much energy went into launching the two wars against Iraq without disturbing the delicate sensitivities of the American public. Iraq was a foreign war we might see on our TV screens but it was not something for us to change our daily lives; at least not gas or energy ...
