This is the most comprehensive look at the war in Iraq that I’ve seen. Furthermore it give a sense of what war is really like, and shows aspects of the conflict that have been woefully under-reported in this country.
Every image in this package has impact. Combined with the graphics and stats it proves to be an incredible look at some of the facts of the Iraq war. The use of some very graphically bloody images were utilized well by running them on the inside pages.
“809 Days” is extraordinary piece that balances gripping pictures of war with accessible and informative graphics. From timelines to cartography the reporting is powerful. The pictures are compelling and fresh. It is elegantly designed to allow for ease of reading.
