Trade Review
"Ashley Gilbertson, a gifted and fearless photographer, has plunged into this darkest and most ferocious of battle-grounds and found beauty and horror and honor and truth. Scan the faces captured in these pages, of Iraqis and Americans, and of the predicaments they have found themselves in, and see and feel - in your gut - what it really means to be a human being in the middle of a place like Iraq." - from the Introduction by Dexter Filkins"
