This is an updated account of the events which led up to and followed Iraq's invasion of Kuwait. The authors aim to answer the many questions that still remain about the events of late 1990 and early 1991 - why did Saddam Hussein invade Kuwait, was a combination of sanctions and diplomacy a viable alternative to war, was the air campaign really precise and how was Saddam Hussein able to survive such a catastrophic defeat?

From the Back Cover:
The Gulf Conflict provides the most authoritative and comprehensive account to date of Iraq's occupation of Kuwait, its expulsion by a coalition of Western and Arab forces seven months later, and the aftermath of the war. Blending compelling narrative history with objective analysis, Lawrence Freedman and Efraim Karsh inquire in to the fundamental issues underlying the dispute and probe the strategic calculations of all the participants.
About the Author:
Lawrence Freedman is Professor of War Studies at King's College, London. Efraim Karsh, Director of the Mediterranean Studies Program at King's College, is a well-known writer on Middle Eastern and Soviet affairs and a leading authority on the Iran-Iraq War.
