“A majestic, masterful book. I
couldn’t put it down, even in its most aching, tearful moments. War
has such a dark heart, and Doug Stanton doesn’t shy away from that,
but he also shows us the better hearts of human beings, and that’s
what makes this book so profoundly moving and unforgettable.” —David Finkel, author of Thank You for Your Service and Pulitzer Prize–winning
journalist
