Synopsis
LGEN THE HON. ROMÉO DALLAIRE (Ret) served thirty-five years with the Canadian Armed Forces and now sits in the Canadian Senate. His Governor General's Literary Award-winning book, Shake Hands with the Devil , exposed the failures of the international community to stop the worst genocide in the twentieth century. It has been turned into an Emmy Award-winning documentary as well as a feature film; it has also been entered into evidence in war crimes tribunals trying the perpetrators of the Rwandan genocide. Dallaire has received numerous honours and awards, including Officer of the Order of Canada in 2002, Grand Officer of the National Order of Québec in 2005, the Aegis Award for Genocide Prevention from the Aegis Trust (United Kingdom) and the United Nations Association in Canada's Pearson Peace Medal in 2005. As a champion of human rights, his activities include work on genocide prevention, the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons and the Child Soldier Initiative, which seeks to develop a conceptual base for the elimination of the use of child soldiers.

About The Book Scouts
Welcome to The Book Scouts! We\'re glad you decided to stop in. We\'re readers and collectors, just like you, and we\'ve now been selling on the internet for over 5 years to help support that collection! You\'ll find lots of high quality books in all our categories. Mystery, Science Fiction and Fantasy are our specialties, but we\'ve got tonnes of other interesting books - many signed by the author! Most of our books which were published within the last 5 years are purchased from a book wholesaler and are in excellent condition. We obtain 90% of our SIGNED BOOKS from them as well. These books were signed for the original publisher by the author. Due to excess inventory they sell them off and we pass on the deals to you!! If you have any questions, please just let us know! Thanks! The Book Scouts (Chris, Sue & Jim)
