Book Reviews of A Hundred And One Days: A Baghdad Journal

Book Review: 101 storms over Baghdad
Summary: 5 Stars

She documented in this book her report before, in and after the 2003 American Iraqi invasion in a grass root level with the Iraqi people.

As an European reporter, she made friends with many locals. With their respect and trust,she was able to write down what they think, see and feel. Shock and awe may initiate a regime change but it is not easy to restore peace and stability despite the huge military and financial power. The Iraqi people can decide what is important: electric power or voting power.

This Baghdad personal journal gives an inside look on the state of affairs in Iraq and how difficult for a woman European reporter tried to get visa extension without dollars. It is an in-depth report from an independent source not available on our daily coverage. The politicians promise of flowers and candies for the incoming soldiers was not materialized and the three parties democracy is not reality. This book helps us understand and evaluate the situation and cost.
