A former member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee who led the U.S. Senate to pass sanctions against Saddam Hussein's regime documents what he believes to be the failed American war in Iraq, profiling the country as a broken nation comprised of a Kurdistan independent state, strict Islamic regions, and troubled Sunni politics.

"[Galbraith's] account of the blunders and the missed opportunities is by a very long way the best one published so far.... Here at last is a book written by someone who both knows about Iraq and cares about it.... How one wishes that its author had been listened to in the first place."
-- Christopher Hitchens, The Washington Times
