Banking on Baghdad by Edwin Black—Library Edition hardback
Banking on Baghdad: Inside Iraq's 7,000-year History of War, Profit, and Conflict chronicles the dramatic and tragic history of a land long the center of world commerce and conflict. Tracing the involvement of Western governments and militaries, as well as oil, banking, and other corporate interests, Black pinpoints why today, just as throughout modern history, the world needs Iraq's resources and remains determined to acquire and protect them. Banking on Baghdad almost painfully documents the many ways Iraq's recent history mirrors its tumultuous past.
