The main objective of this book is to introduce the Iraq I used toknow, and bring about a different perspective to a country that has been soharshly portrayed by the media. The reader will be taken back to a timewhere Iraq was filled with culture and diversity, and experience what it waslike to grow up in the region of the Fertile Crescent. The true beauty of sucha wonderful country will be brought to light and its vast history will leavereaders in awe.It is my hope that this book will raise a new level of awareness andbring about feelings toward a culture that seems all but gone forever. Although the Iraq I used to know is longer such, my memories will makesure that it stays with us for eternity. I am pleased to share my personalexperiences and feel readers from all backgrounds will enjoy them.
