Chicago Sun Times picks 'A Thousand Hills' as one of the Best Books of 2008 "For a sheer, eye-opening revelation of what's been going on in another part of the world, Stephen Kinzer's "A Thousand Hills: Rwanda's Rebirth and the Man Who Dreamed It" packs a lot into its 380 pages. Kinzer, a former New York Times foreign correspondent who has worked in more than 50 countries, tells the story of Rwanda's new leader, Paul Kagame, who is trying to turn a nation ravaged by ethnic killing into the star of Africa." |
As part of its campaign against US intervention in Iran, Just Foreign Policy has sent every member of Congress a copy of "All the Shah's Men: An American Coup and the Roots of Middle East Terror."
