Présentation de l'éditeur

In the spring of 2005, when the Iraqi insurgency reached its first peak, Westerners were being kidnapped and beheaded, and most journalists had left Iraq - Bangert arrived on assignment for The New York Times. He was one of the few photographers who remained, committed to covering the war throughout 2006 and 2007. This exciting book attempts to record the difference between the American invasion and the Iraqi civil war, and the space between ""us"" and ""them"".
