Summary:
In his war diary, American lawyer Michael O'Kane tells of his experience in the Green Zone in Baghdad, running the office of a German law firm in Iraq; specializing in the practice of international law and post-invasion law. Practising law in a war zone isn't so bad, if you can overlook the nightly mortar attacks. Meanwhile, there's a law practice to organize and clients to keep happy, but sometimes it seems that conflicts with the home office are more stressful than the fear that a rocket exploding nearby will find its target.--Publisher.
