USA History Told in a Story — Book 2: Desert Storm to Today

$4.99

USA History Told in a Story — Book 2: Desert Storm to Today — 125 pages that pick the story up where Book One left it: in a desert in 1990, and carry it through the longest wars in American history to the day you are living in now. By Cosmo, from the lived memories of a U.S. Navy veteran, and published by Kaila's World. Illustrated with 13 real public-domain archive photographs, every one credited.

From the storm in the desert and the women who drove in Riyadh, to war back in Europe in Bosnia and a mission that changed in Somalia; from the fuse that burned through the 1990s to a blue-sky Tuesday in September; from the war on horseback in Afghanistan and the streets of Baghdad, to the night the fuse burned out in Abbottabad, a pandemic year, eleven days at a gate in Kabul, and the years since — one true story per chapter, told plain and warm, the way grandfathers tell it. Every date, name, and number checked, and where the story is hard, it's told straight.

Instant PDF download after checkout — yours to keep on your own devices. Licensed for your personal use under the Kaila's World Digital Rights & Licensing Policy. The book closes with the one page that was never this book's to fill: the last page of the American story is still unwritten — it belongs to whoever is holding this book.
