A History of Iraq by Charles Tripp

yahyaelkinani's review

5.0

Excellent book, this book gave me a much wider understanding of how the last 150 years have shaped Iraq. It was very specific without making it boring, for example Bakr al Sidqi who became a danger in the 1930s or how abdel Bazzaz tried to reform Iraq in the 1960s to a democratic nation.

3.5 stars - is exactly what it says it is. Accessible and focused on the big picture.
