Out of Iraq: True Stories of Iraqis Forced to Flee Their Country

Out of Iraq tells the story of Iraq from the viewpoint of the people who know the most about the subject: Iraqis themselves. The book is perfect for every person who has seen or heard the many news stories about Iraq in recent years and wanted to know the truth about what has happened there. In addition to first-hand accounts of events in Iraq, the book also includes Iraqis’ opinions about major political issues affecting their country over the years, including Saddam Hussein‘s government, the 2003 U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, the post-invasion Iraqi government, and the United States’ continued involvement in Iraq’s affairs. Featuring a cross-section of stories from before, during, and after the 2003 invasion, Out of Iraq educates and surprises readers by providing little-known details of life in Iraq. At times heart-wrenching, darkly comedic, and inspiring, the stories in Out of Iraq bring to life the individual Iraqis so often overlooked by the mainstream media.
