Synopsis

In Mesopotamia is the graphic account of Martin Swayne's experiences as a medical officer during the First World War while on active service in Iraq and Kuwait. Swayne's beautifully crisp prose draws a compelling and unflinching portrait of modern warfare. First published in 1917, In Mesopotamia speaks directly of the harrowing consequences of the West's obsessive quest for influence over the Middle East.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Garden of Eden when you reach the top of the Persian Gulf, unless the sun be that Flaming Sword which turns every way to keep the way of the Tree of Life. Of cherubim we could see no signs. We lay motionless awaiting orders by wireless. Of the country before us we knew next to nothing.
