Reviews:

"A worthwhile compilation for libraries and bookstores seeking titles on the subject."--Criticas

"A fast and powerful read, and its themes are still relevant today... and shows vividly the suffering others have endured at our hands, the same sort of suffering our government has pledged to fight... This book is the kind of true testimonial that all Americans should read."--Clamor
