About This Item
Synopsis
In this distillation of frontline experiences and cultural insights, Anita Pratap, one of the finest journalists India has ever produced, faithfully reports on the consequences of war, ethnic conflict, earthquakes, cyclones, prejudices, and the mindless hatred and fear that has hurt so much of the world. Wherever there was a story to be told-from her native India to Afghanistan and Sri Lanka-Pratap braved the odds to send in reports from the front, managing to track down elusive stories and make headlines. With determined diligence she exposed the terrors inside such frightening regimes as the Taliban, returning home each time with a renewed determination to appreciate and celebrate the ordinary.

About True Oak Books
True Oak Books is a proud member of the IOBA (Independent Online Booksellers Association) and adheres to their high ethical and professional standards.
In order to remain competitive with low value books and be able to offer them, we have a tiered shipping system to make low price transactions economically sound. Lower value books will ship in a protective bubble mailer, as 99% of these reach the customer without problems. We go beyond this for higher ticket items and provide box service. If your post office handles books roughly, you can request cardboard/box service for lower value items as well.
