Reveals the whole war fought between Iraq and an international coalition, and offers a refreshing insight into this unique conflict. Early in the morning of 2 August 1990, the Iraqi Republican Guards stormed into Kuwait. Although encountering some problems, the Iraqi forces occupied Kuwait in a matter of days. However, when President Saddam Hussein of Iraq unleashed his military upon Kuwait, little did he know what kind of reaction he would provoke from the Western superpowers, and what kind of devastation his country would suffer in return. Desert Storm reveals the whole war fought between Iraq and an international coalition, from the start of this campaign to its very end. AUTHORS: E. R. Hooton is a successful retired defence journalist, including acting as a Jane's yearbook editor. Tom Cooper is an Austrian aerial warfare analyst and historian. 120 photographs, 15 artworks, maps and diagrams
