Summary

"A classical scholar who has spent three decades covering the Middle East and one of the few journalists to have interviewed Saddam Hussein, Paul William Roberts knows Iraq better than most. And he was in Baghdad when the bombs started falling. This is his expose of the politics behind the recent war - and the brutal reality the Iraqis experienced but the rest of the world did not see."--BOOK JACKET.
