Product Description

Product Description
Modern Iraq is under threat from every quarter, politics play havoc with ordinary lives and sanctions cut deep. However, today's rare visitors are met with a broad hospitality that belies years of deprivation. And behind the politics is a land as rich in history and legend as any in the Middle East. Here is Mesopotamia, where three great religions - Christianity, Judaism and Islam - were born. Here are the ancient cities of Ur and Nineveh, and the site of Babylon.

2.0 out of 5 stars Of use and interest ... but dating fast, 2 Nov 2004

By A Customer

This book was published pre-war and at least one of the authors was a long-time advocate of lifting sanctions and ally of John Pilger. It's terrible on the Kurdish regions.

More up-to-date is Gilles Munier 'Iraq: an Illustrated History and Guide', although it lacks the details re hotels etc.

Either might be of use - and or interest - to someone visiting. But surely no-one would be mad enough to rely on either for decisions about where to travel and where to stay: for either you MUST have up-to-date information from people on the ground whom you trust.

3.0 out of 5 stars Useful if off the beaten track, 25 Aug 2003

By	Nicholas A. Robson "nahrobson" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This was a useful book if a little dated; admittedly once I got to most of the areas described, the views had changed a touch! It is really a history book than a travel guide, but it was of value in understanding the local's view on life. Wouldn't recommend you go there for a holiday though!
