In August 1990, Saddam Hussein's Iraqi forces boldly invaded and
occupied neighboring Kuwait. It was a move that shocked the world
and threatened the interests of those countries, such as the USA
and the nations of Europe, dependent on oil from the Middle East.
The ensuing Gulf War signaled, for many, a new dawn in warfare: one
based upon lethal technology, low casualties, and quick decisive
victory. Incorporating the latest scholarship, William Thomas
Allison provides a concise overview of the origins, key events and
legacy of the first Gulf War, as well as the major issues and
debates. Allison also examines the relevance of this war to other
twentieth-century conflicts and the ongoing situation in the
region.
