Road Work: Among Tyrants Heroes Rogues and Beasts

About this book

Anyone who has read Mark Bowdens Black Hawk Down or Killing Pablo knows that he is capable of putting us in the heat of a story in a way few writers can. Road Work gathers the best of his award-winning writing from his breakout stories for the Philadelphia Inquirer to his influential pieces in the Atlantic on the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. Whether traveling to Zambia where a team of antipoachers fights to save the black rhino to Guantnamo Bay to expose the controversial ways America is fighting its war on terror or to a small town in Rhode Island to penetrate the largest cocaine ring in history Bowden takes us down rough roads previously off limitsand gives us another gripping read.
