- I am proud to report that How America Lost Iraq, my unembedded book about Iraq under U.S. occupation is now a bestseller. As of today, it is #9 on the San Francisco Chronicle‘s list. …
The book has also racked up a few glowing reviews.
Here’s what the Seattle Times had to say:
“A no holds barred look at our Iraq quagmire … an important first-person document historians will look to in the future as they draw a more complete picture of America’s catastrophic victory in Iraq.”
Publisher’s Weekly gave How America Lost Iraq a starred review:
“Glantz’s account is full of interviews with ordinary Iraqis, and from their evolving thoughts and experiences he builds a critique of the many American misconceptions about Iraq, one that castigates equally the left’s knee-jerk preconceptions, the occupation authorities’ cluelessness and heavy-handed misrule and the media’s lack of interest in the suffering of Iraqis. The result is a nuanced and hard-hitting indictment.”
