Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Mercenaries, Gunslingers, and Outlaws is the story of 2 years as a security contractor in Iraq. It's not just a story about firefights and surviving IEDs while protecting American contractors, although those kinds of stories are there, it shares an account that covers the full spectrum of some of the most profound experiences of his life. Rather than a chronological account, the book is broken into sections covering an amazingly wide range of experiences and topics. The chapters within each section are relatively short and tell complete stories, much like vignettes, that keep the reader turning the pages. The reader experiences IEDs, high-speed crashes, firefights, run-ins with Iraqi security forces, the stress and uncertainty of being surrounded by locals, any one of whom could be an insurgent or suicide bomber, the tactics used to stay alive on the roads, and the inevitable human cost in lost and destroyed lives. Some sections tell the stories of the people he met and worked beside: former U.S. Army Green Berets, British Royal Marines, a former Lebanese Christian Militiamen captured by the Syrians when he was 16, British Gurkhas from Nepal, South African counter-terrorist commandos, a former member of the French Foreign Legion, and even a Buddhist monk. There are stories of heroic figures who were larger than life, of outlaws who came to Iraq because they didn't fit in anywhere else and ended up not fitting in there either, and then there are the Iraqi people who invited the author into their homes. AUTHOR: Robert Kurtz is a veteran with a graduate degree and 15 years as an international private security contractor. Besides Iraq, he has worked in hot spots worldwide including Afghanistan, Pakistan, Jordan, Israel, the Palestinian West Bank, and Lebanon. He was on assignment in Cairo during the 2011 Arab Spring riots and has overseen the evacuations of Americans from Haiti, Yemen, Egypt, and Afghanistan. He has provided security at events attended by former Presidents and high-visibility public figures. An expert in all aspects of personal and operational security, he has written over 150 articles for online magazines on firearms, security, travel safety, and military topics, as well as his time in Iraq. In his life he has climbed mountains, explored ghost towns and abandoned mines, commanded a tank platoon, and crossed the North Atlantic during winter storms. 16 illustrations Retired after 12 years in the military, Robert Kurtz had never deployed to war, so when he got the opportunity to deploy to Iraq as a private security contractor, he did not hesitate. The two and a half years he spent in Iraq and the people he met would change his life profoundly. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Hardback. Zustand: New. A candid and multifaceted look at life as a security contractor in Iraq in the early years after the American invasion. It's not just a story of surviving IEDs and firefights while protecting American contractors-though those moments are vividly recounted-it's also an exploration of the broader, often unexpected, experiences that defined the author's two and a half years in Iraq.Structured as a series of concise, self-contained chapters, the book captures a wide range of events and encounters: high-speed crashes, tense standoffs with Iraqi security forces, the ever-present uncertainty of knowing who to trust, and the toll of living in a warzone-but outside the protection of the military-on contractors, clients, and locals alike. The focus isn't just on action but also on the everyday challenges and the strategies necessary to stay safe in such a dangerous and unpredictable environment.The book introduces the diverse people the author met through his work, from former Green Berets, British Royal Marines and South African commandos, through to Gurkhas, a former member of the French Foreign Legion, and even a Buddhist monk. There are stories of heroic, larger-than-life figures and of outlaws who came to Iraq because they didn't fit in anywhere else and ended up not fitting in there either. It also delves into the lives of Iraqi civilians, who offered glimpses of kindness and humanity amid the chaos. These stories provide readers with a nuanced and personal perspective on a challenging and complex chapter of modern conflict.…
