Peter Beaumont is one of those rare writers who's willing to go all the way over the edge in his relentless pursuit of the truth. What happened in Iraq, Afghanistan, Gaza, and other battlefields of the early 21st century? Beaumont uses the pen to reflect on the people he met, the surreal realities of war and the deep wounds left long after the shooting stops. Haunting, troubling, and deeply affecting, if you want to understand why we fight, what happens when we do, and what it takes to gaze unflinchingly at humanity's shadow, Beaumont must be read.
