Synopsis
The war in Iraq as it happened: an extraordinary visual account by Reuters straight from the front lines. Direct from Reuters, this is the first day-by-day visual history of the war between the U.S. and its allies and Saddam Hussein's Iraq. Reuters' award-winning photographers, war correspondents, and graphic artists present a unique and unbiased panorama of every phase of the war, from the initial U.S. bunker strike aimed at killing Saddam Hussein through the regime's collapse and the massive looting that followed it. More than 100 gripping photographs and graphics give you close-up views of the firefights and the fiercest sandstorms. the "shock and awe" air attacks, the capture of the southern oilfields, the ambushes and the accidents...the POWs and the paratroopers, the battle for Saddam International Airport, and the secret rooms of Saddam's Presidential Palaces. Reuters' war journalists draw upon their unsurpassed experience to bring back riveting descriptions from the heat of battle. Reuters' analysts provide the context and insight day-to-day coverage often lacks, with precision graphics that illuminate every strategic development. Whether embedded with U.S. troops or on the streets of Baghdad, Reuters journalists bring breadth, depth and objectivity found nowhere else.
Their broad, deep, powerful visual account truly earns the right to be called "a first draft of history."
