 with a Foreword by Amy Goodman of Democracy Now!\n\n"Every conflict spawns 
 a handful of journalists who are willing to not only brave the war zone but 
 to seek out the stories ignored by the press pack. The Iraq War has brought 
 us Dahr Jamail. Jamail's account will prove an enduring document of what 
 really happened during the chaotic years of occupation, and how it 
 transformed ordinary Iraqis.\n\nIf years from now, Americans are willing to 
 read any books about the war, this one should be among them. It tells 
 everything."\n-Mother Jones magazine\n\n\n"From the earliest days of the 
 war, Dahr Jamail has been a human conduit for the voices of Iraqis living 
 under U.S. occupation. In the face of tremendous personal risk, his 
 commitment to the crucial, principled task of bearing witness has never 
 wavered, and this extraordinary book is the result."\n-Naomi Klein, author, 
 No Logo and The Shock Doctrine\n\n\n"While the powerful media conglomerates 
 embedded on the ground with the invading and occupying forces, Jamail 
 embedded with the suffering people of Iraq and uncovered the horrors of 
 this war of 'liberation.' Dahr Jamail is the conscience of American war 
 reporting, the quintessential unembedded reporter."\n-Jeremy Scahill, New 
 York Times best-selling author of Blackwater: The Rise of the World's Most 
 Powerful Mercenary Army\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR\n\nDahr Jamail is an
