Soldiers have always told their tales of war, but in Bloody Hell, they go further and lay bare the horrors, nightmares, and nagging questions that haunt their lives. Veterans of every major war in this century reveal the real price that soldiers pay, exposing the chasm between the recruiter's sell and the realities of the military machine.

Chatterjee examines the big failings and even bigger swindles of Iraq's corporate managers, from the dangerous follies of an out-of-touch government-in-exile to the unchecked price gouging by Cheney's successors at Halliburton. Chaterjee contrasts the employment boom of foreign mercenaries with the unemployed locals ripe for recruitment to the resistance. Drawing on years of research and first-hand experience, Chatterjee brings us the dilapidated hospitals, looted ministries, and guarded corporate enclaves that mark the plunderous road to America's free Iraq.
