Cover Notes
General Frederick M. Franks,
Jr., commanded the armor and infantry of VII Corps, the main coalition
force that broke the back of Iraq's Republican Guard. Never before have
the land war, and the art of maneuver warfare itself, been explored so
incisively and in such rich, provocative detail. Clancy and Franks take
us deep inside the war councils and command posts and up to the front lines,
to show us a war that few people even knew that television never showed.
Beyond that, however, Into the Storm is the account of transformations---the
transformation of an American army traumatized by the Vietnam War and that
of a man devastated by the loss of a leg in that war. The former became
once again the world's most powerful force; the latter, one of his country's
most honored commanders-the first amputee active duty general since the
Civil War. Together, the story of that army and that man, and the wars
they fought, make Into the Storm an instant classic of military history.
