I think this quote from this chapter says a lot about why I am enjoying reading this so much "Their first response was laughter of disbelief that a reporter from Britain was interested in what they thought about anything." I have the impression that whereas other journalists might grab the odd quote for their story, Hugh was really out there living and being in Iraq as much as was possible. This shows - the reader feels they are among the real people (incl US soldiers) . So refreshing.
