Ante Gugo has collected and painstakingly researched all the most significant events which characterized the dissolution of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and the creation of the Republic of Croatia, placing them in an impressive historical as well as political context. He deals not only with the Croatian War of Independence (known as the Homeland War) - which culminated in "Operation Storm" and the liberation of a quarter of Croatian territory from four years of Serb military occupation - but also takes into account the five years preceding the outbreak of the Croatian War of Independence, dissecting the events from the second half of the 1980s that led directly to the Serbian war of aggression against Slovenia, Croatia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Ante Gugo was born October 10, 1963, in Knin, Croatia. He began working as a journalist upon his arrival to Zagreb for his studies. In 1989, he was politically persecuted due to his open criticism of the Communist regime in Yugoslavia. During the armed aggression on Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, he was active as a war reporter. After the end of the war for Croatia's independence, he was employed as a political commentator and newspaper editor. He is the author of several films about environmental protection and tourism. He has also written scripts for comics, as well as a children's novel. In the Eye of the Storm: Political, Diplomatic and Military Struggle for Croatian Independence is Gugo's third book in the field of political non-fiction.
