The modern nation of Iraq occupies the ancient land of Mesopotamia, where the world's first known civilisation began. From the banks of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, where these first peoples settled, to the mountain communities of the north, and deserts of the south, this book explores a landscape scarred by a history of war and conquest.
