Very light bump to the head-and-tail of spine, else, extremities very well-perserved, contents entirely withou blemish with bright, clean, and unmarked pages and firm, sound binding; near fine and housed in fine, original, unclipped, dustjacket (now housed in protective mylar cover). Scarce in commerce in this signed edition, and state. SIGNED, impersonally, in ink by the author to the title page. Iraq, September 2003; it's six months after the US-led invasion, and the country is an anarchy - the infrastructure has collapsed, terrorist attacks have begun and the coalition had decided to rule directly via the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA). Rory Stewart, a young British diplomat, is appointed as the coalition deputy governor (CPA deputy governance coordinator) of a province of 850,000 people in the southern marshland. There, in the cities of Amara and then Nasiriyah, he and his colleagues confront gangsters, Iranian-linked politicians, tribal vendettas and a full Islamist insurgency, in which Stewart is besieged in his compound under continual fire, struggling to keep his staff alive. They negotiate hostage releases, appoint Iraqi governors and police chiefs, patch up the shattered infrastructure and, in June 2004, hand over sovereignty to the Iraqi government. Stewart's almost colonial role may never exist again. His insider's account reveals a side of Iraq hidden from most foreign journalists and soldiers and raises questions about the whole project of 'state-building' in the twenty-first century.
