Two Birthdays in Baghdad

Anna Prouse, an Italian journalist, emergency medic, and born adventurer, gives us a view of today's Iraq not seen elsewhere. She writes of death and destruction, but also looks beyond the chaos to see Iraqis as the real people they are, and to find the Iraqi and foreign communities working together to bring forth a new nation. Her wit and compassion make her book an engaging and delightful experience. --Publisher's description.
