Pressezitat
“[Bowden is] one of America’s pre-eminent practitioners of long-form journalism. . . . Beyond the military pieces, Wanat offers excellent profiles . . . The Three Battles of Wanat should please Bowden’s legions of fans. He usually writes with care and empathy, eschewing fashionable snark and take-down drama.” —The Dallas Morning News“[This] timely long-form anthology looks at events that still affect us . . . Bowden is so good at what he does best—highlighting the human angle of battles large and small—that the reader is led to consider what another round of ‘boots on the ground’ could actually mean.” —Minneapolis Star-Tribune
“The author of the bestselling Black Hawk Down will please fans and win new ones with this bracing collection of essays. Bowden is in his element charting the familiar and complex territory of American engagement in foreign conflicts . . . But those only familiar with Bowden’s war reportage will be pleasantly surprised to discover the variety of topics he has tackled in this collection . . . With his rigorous and respectful approach to his subjects, multifaceted viewpoint, and wry sense of humor, Bowden proves that American journalism hasn’t kicked the bucket yet.” —Publishers Weekly
