Description

Michael Palin's journey along the River Tigris and into Iraq offers a unique glimpse into a country with a rich history and complex present. The author shares his meticulously kept journal from the trip, which describes a land where past and present coexist in an intricate dance. From exploring ancient ruins like Babylon to witnessing the aftermath of conflict in areas such as Basra and Tikrit, Palin's account provides a nuanced understanding of Iraq's extraordinary variety. Peppered with warmth and wry humour, and illustrated with beautiful colour photographs, this journal offers a rare insight into life in Iraq today.
