Summary
Sandra Mackey: A History of Iraq
And the Future After Saddam Hussein
A History of Iraq, from Mesopotamian times to the present day, is a detailed account of the historical, religious, ethnic, and political forces that led to Saddam's dictatorship. The author, Sandra Mackey, an independent journalist, was in Iraq during her research, but had severe restrictions on movement and contacts, so the book was largely created using other historical sources, which are listed at the end of the book.
