Middle East Media and Book Reviews Online

"I strongly recommend this book. Ardolino has managed to write two important stories of the Iraq war in one book.... This book is a valuable addition to the literature on Iraq, the Middle East and naturally, terrorism/counter-terrorism. Ardolino tells the story of successful counterinsurgency in Iraq, drawing lessons for other conflicts; and he manages to tell the story very well in a relatively small book. It will not be hard to get the students to read this well-written and engaging book...Useful as a secondary book in Middle East Politics, Iraqi Politics, Terrorism/Counter Terrorism, and Community Policing."
