| Latest new from CIVIC - "In the Hot Zone" by Kevin Sites |
  |
CIVIC has announced her partnership with Kevin Sites in the newsletter I received recently. Following is a copy of the letter.
As one of the world's most respected war correspondents, Kevin Sites
has spent the past seven years covering global war and disaster. For
his new book, "In the Hot Zone," Sites ventured into the dark heart of
war - armed with just a video camera, a digital camera, a laptop, and a
satellite modem. Sites journeyed to virtually every major
combat zone from Somalia to Iraq, bringing to his readers an honest
account of war's devastation and through vivid story-telling puts a
human face on war not often seen.
Sites
is a longtime friend of ours, helping Marla Ruzicka during the earliest
days of this organization's work to help war victims. He is generously donating a portion of the proceeds from "In the Hot Zone" to CIVIC.
You can support CIVIC by purchasing a copy of "In the Hot Zone: One Man, One Year, Twenty Wars" today:

For everyone who cares about the human cost of war, this is an
important, thought provoking read. It's also a great holiday gift for
anyone on your list. What could be better than getting a great book
and supporting CIVIC's work to help war victims at the same time?
Sincerely,
Sarah Holewinski
Executive Director
