Summary: Every Man a Tiger, a look deep into modern air power, as seen through the eyes of one of its most outstanding commanders... General Chuck Horner commanded the U.S. and allied air assets -- the forces of a dozen nations -- during Desert Shield and Desert Storm, and was responsible for the design and execution of one of the most devastating air campaigns in history. Never before have the Gulf air war and its planning, a process filled with controversy and stormy personalities, been revealed in such rich, provocative detail. Every Man a Tiger is a front-row view of a man, an institution, a war, and a way of war -- that together make this an instant classic of military history.
Prologue: 3 August 1990 -- Into the Wild Blue -- Every Man a Tiger -- The Big Lie -- The Vision of Bill Creech -- Shield in the Sky -- Mission to Jeddah -- CENTCOM Forward -- Planning the Storm -- Band of Brothers and Sisters -- The Thousand-Hour War -- Storm! -- Hits and Misses -- Lost and Found -- Punch and Counterpunch -- A Day in the War -- The Ten Percent War -- Shock and Awe -- Final Thoughts: Building Coalitions.
