Al-Anbar Awakening Volume I: American Perspectives U.S. Marines and Counterinsurgency in Iraq, 2004-2009
Timothy S. McWilliams, Kurtis P. Wheeler
This two-volume anthology of interviews tells the story of the al-Anbar Awakening and the emergence of al-Anbar Province from the throes of insurgency. It presents the perspectives of both Iraqis (volume two) and Americans (volume one) who ultimately came to work together, in an unlikely alliance of former adversaries, for the stabilization and redevelopment of the province. The collection begins in the 2003-4 time frame with the rise of the insurgency and concludes with observations from the vantage point of early to-mid 2009.The anthology demonstrates that there is not one history of the Awakening, but several histories intertwined. It is not a complete collection, but one that provides a broad spectrum of candid, unvarnished perspectives from some of the leading players.
