Synopsis & Historical Value
Published in New York in 2003 by Time Books, 21 Days to Baghdad follows the three-week advance of American and British forces from the Kuwait-Iraq border to the Iraqi capital. The book is told through photographs and dispatches, with the magazine's own photographers and correspondents supplying eyewitness accounts of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
The volume is arranged around a road-to-war section, striking war photography, reports from the front lines and maps, giving a day-by-day picture of the campaign as it unfolded. Soldiers' photographs and reports from the field and the home front give the account a immediacy typical of contemporary photojournalism.
A large, heavy and handsomely illustrated volume, it is a collectible used book for those who build libraries on modern conflict, military photojournalism and the Iraq War.
