About the book

"Baghdad journal is the culmination of four voyages to war-torn Iraq by artist Steve Mumford. In the long tradition of war artists, particularly Winslow Homer's Civil War work for Harper's Weekly, Mumford meticulously documents the everyday scenes of Iraq in bold, breathtaking watercolors and drawings and paints a human side of the war that can be lost in the immediacy of photographic and broadcast images. Not overtly political, Baghdad Journal presents portraits of life from all sides of the polarizing conflict. With sketchpad and notebook in hand, Mumford illuminates the activities of a nation in turmoil from the individual soldiers of American platoons to Baghdad residents going about their daily lives amid the chaos surrounding them."--BOOK JACKET.
