3 ratings1 review
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5One of the very best nonfiction books about the war on terror, told through third and first person narrative accounts. The book explores how American military forces become engaged in torture during battlefield operations, and the myriad costs to them, their detainees, and to the war on terror itself.
