<br/><br/> The most reviled man in the eyes of Westerners and his Arab detractors, Saddam Hussein ruled Iraq for nearly twenty-five years. A follower of Stalinism, Hussein used cruel and brutal tactics to consolidate and enforce his power. The author offers insight into Hussein's life, from his rise to dictator to the toppling of his regime during the 2003 U.S.-Iraqi war. An enlightening look at the power and despotism of one man.
