Leaders in War present unique first-person perspectives across the spectrum of American combat operations during the 1991 Persian Gulf War. From division commanders to platoon leaders, the authors deliver an insider's view of tough leadership challenges, tragic failures, and triumphant victories. Leaders in War captures the essence of the post-Cold War US Army: how an all-volunteer army, equipped with new weapons systems and adjusting to new battle doctrine, mounted one of history's most successful military campaigns. Described here are the details of the tremendous logistical challenges, innovations in intelligence, ground combat operations from platoon to division, and a wide range of combat support operations. Leaders in War focuses not just on the successes, but on the failures as well, in operations ranging from violent tank battles against the vaunted Iraqi Republican Guard to train-and-fill operations thousands of miles away. Leaders in War illustrates how US Army leaders adapted to the psychological strains of combat, the fog of war, unforeseeable challenges, and the fury of tank warfare during the Persian Gulf War.

The traditional folk songs and unusual selection of yarns were collected by the children's book editor [Ann Durell] from various American regions and ethnic groups. The songs range from zippy (''Buffalo Gal,'' ''Yankee Doodle,'' ''Clementine,'' ''I've Been Working on the Railroad'') to melancholy (''On Top of Old Smokey,'' ''Swing Low, Sweet Chariot'') and sweet (''Billy Boy''). Ms. [DIANE GOODE] translates the pulse and mood of each into witty illustrations. The stories include the somewhat familiar (''Davy Crockett Meets His Match'' and ''Good or Bad?''), the not so familiar (''The Three Girls With the Journey-Cakes,'' ''The Talking Mule''), the humorous (''The Greedy Wife,'' ''The Twist-Mouth Family,'' ''The Knee-High Man''), the animal fable (''The Coyote and the Bear'') and the shivery ghost tale (''Wait Till Martin Comes'').
