This reference work is an ideal resource for anyone interested in
better understanding the controversial Iraq War. It treats the war
in its entirety, covering politics, religion, and history, as well
as military issues. The Iraq War started in 2003 in a quest to rid
the nation of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) that were never
found. It lasted over 8 years, during which more than 30,000 U.S.
service members were wounded and almost 4,500 American lives lost.
Comprised of some 275 entries, this comprehensive encyclopedia
examines the war from multiple points of view. Each article is
written by an expert with specialized knowledge of the topic. The
reference covers every aspect of the Iraq War, from the U.S.
invasion (Operation IRAQI FREEDOM) through the rise of Al Qaeda in
Iraq, the surge, and the U.S. withdrawal. Other significant aspects
of the conflict are addressed as well, including Abu Ghraib, WMDs,
the controversial use of private military contractors, and
Britain's role in the war. The book also features an overview
essay, a "causes and consequences" essay, maps, photos, a
chronology, and a bibliography.
