A review by bobbo49
Baghdad Without a Map and Other Misadventures in Arabia by Tony Horwitz

4.0

Although now 20 years old, and thus historically somewhat dated, Horwitz's first-person accounts of a journalist's travels through the Middle East in the 1980s-early 1990s is perceptive, often amusing, and well-written. He captures Cairo (the only locale I have visted) perfectly, and I have to believe he does the same with Baghdad, Tehran, Yemen, the Persian Gulf, etc. A great snapshot of time and place.
