Summary: Fine for a Picture Book
Comment: This book is consists almost entirely of pictures. Very litle is written about the men and women who fought and continue to fight this war. Also, although the 3rd Infantry division was the main effort during this campaign it seems like the Marines steal the show in this book. If you like pictures this is the book for you. I you want to read about the war you will be disappointed.

Summary: Another day in the desert...
Comment: This is essentially a photo album of Operation Iraqi Freedom which again proves the old adage, a picture is worth a thousand words. It dispenses with text and allows the reader to visually
experience the war on land, sea, and air. I think it is the best of the current spate of Iraq War books by photo-journalists.

Summary: A priceless photographic time capsule of the war in Iraq
Comment: THE WAR IN IRAQ is a 352-page, color photograph document of the US-led invasion of Iraq. I found this book incredible and priceless, a book to be saved for future reflection on what we have just lived through.
The reason I believe THE WAR IN IRAQ will be important in future reflection is that it beautifully demonstrates the American mainstream media's attitude toward war coverage: the overwhelming majority of this book is dedicated to the military men and women of the US military, with the words "hero" and "heroic" mentioned several times in the book's preface. Very, very few images of Iraqi civilian suffering are offered, which I found interesting considering that over 3000 civilians were killed during the war. Certainly, there are many more photographs of the other side of the war. I find it quite telling that such photographs were largely ignored.
