To Bagdad and Back is a captivating travel narrative that chronicles Joe Mitchell Chapple's journey through the Middle East during a transformative period in the early 20th century. Writing with the keen eye of a seasoned observer, Chapple documents his experiences traversing the ancient lands of Mesopotamia, offering readers a vivid window into the culture, landscapes, and societal shifts of 1920s Iraq.

The work explores the rich tapestry of life in Bagdad, contrasting its deep historical roots with the modernizing influences of the post-war era. Chapple provides insightful commentary on the region's landmarks, the daily lives of its inhabitants, and the political climate of a territory transitioning through significant geopolitical changes. His prose captures the allure of the desert, the bustle of traditional bazaars, and the echoes of a biblical past that continue to shape the contemporary world.
