Yes. I'm just starting this very interesting non-fiction.
I read this book 10 years ago and found it a gripping as well as shocking read of an area of history that I was not familiar with. It does not seem appropriate to say "enjoy it," but like your last post said it is very interesting.

Even though I'm unfamiliar with this historical event, there are elements of the story that mirror current events...only different precious resources to procure, regardless of consequences.
Still waiting for that "review to follow" Carol... 4.5 years now... tic tock, tic tock...

After seven years I am beginning to lose faith in your ability to follow through lol

I was probably just pretending that I would write a review back in 2015.
