The iconic image of the American cowboy is a dominant symbol in American culture today, and it is a central theme in this book. George W. Bush adopted that cowboy image as a key part of his presidential personality, and he used the ideology inherent in that image to pursue what was one of the most catastrophic geopolitical
blunders in recent history, the invasion of Iraq.
