Kurdistan: Genocide and Rebirth: The destruction of Kurdistan and its rebuilding (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781482721843)

One man's true story of horror and hope in Kurdistan. In the 1980s, Saddam Hussein's regime tortured, maimed and murdered thousands of innocent people. Davan Yahya Khalil saw first-hand the horrific crimes inflicted on men, women and children under Saddam, and witnessed his Iraqi Kurdistan homeland torn apart. Forced to flee from the Iraqi army and start a new life in the UK, the author now shares his story for the first time. Offering a unique insight into the life of the Kurds under Saddam Hussein, this story is both horrific and compelling. But the author speaks of much more than just horror. He also tells a story of hope - hope for the people of modern Kurdistan, who are seeing their region rise from the ashes. Award-Winning Finalist in the "History: General" category of the 2015 International Book Awards
