Hundreds of thousands of soldiers have fought in the War on Terror, and these are the human stories behind the headlines from Afghanistan and Iraq-frontline accounts from British Infantrymen, US Marines, Canadian doctors, Iraqi officers, and other eyewitnesses. Blood, Sweat, and Steel covers the entire period from Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait to today, providing background and context-as well as a compelling portrait of the face of 21st-century warfare.
