Agreed, this was a really good book.

"American Experince" also turned the book into a film, which was pretty true to the book and worth a watch.

Ah, I didn't know it was based on a book. Now I need to find the book. I suspect they will be very different experiences. Seeing the deep emotion of the interviewed really did well to convey the human elements.

The film (which was very good) mostly focused on the Damascus, AR incident. That was just one chapter of the book though.
