Writing from the hear tof Baghdad, Omaar follows the ware from its beginning to its aftermath: he describes the atmosphere among the people ont he night the first bombs hit ;t he horror they felt as they watched their city burn ; the anarchy and iunforgiving heat that overwhelmed the country int he battle's wake. Beautifully written and almost unbearable in its detail, [this book] is a powerful and intimate account of a city and its people under seige, and of a conflict at the very centre of our world." - back cover.
