### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    History brought to life with brilliant, compassionate writing
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2019*

This is a collection of Gellhorn's writings as a war correspondent beginning with the Spanish Civil War, World War II and then through Indonesia, Vietnam and the Six Day War.  I learned a great deal about the events that happened before my birth (WWII etc) and even more about the wars since.  I could not read her writings on Vietnam.  They just made my guilt and shame about that war even deeper.  These selections are not about strategy and tactics.  They primarily focus on the terror and pain war brings to civilians.  Anyone in national office or aspiring to national office needs to read these to understand the terrible cost humanity pays in war.  Be aware that Gellhorn does not strive for "objectivity" when she feels bad people, leadership or politics are at fault.  This book should be required reading in U.S. high schools.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Long, Somewhat Tiring History
  

*by E***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2018*

I was surprised by the number of typos in the on line version-- was a bit distracting.  Some interesting history in the various articles, especially about the Spanish Civil War and WW II.  For a person who could not stay away from conflicts (major or minor), I was a bit surprised by some of the lack of background detail on some of the more minor conflictsAlso, unlike some of her earlier articles, the articles on the wars/ conflicts she wrote about near the end of her career (and at the end of the book) are a bit didactic in their focus on her anti-war sentiments, as genuine as they must have been.  Interesting that there is no mention of her experiences with (during war) and later, failed marriage to Ernest Hemingway.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Excellent journalism
  

*by D***G on Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2020*

7. Many people are possibly familiar with her being one of the wives of writer Ernest Hemingway but in her own right she was one of the most brilliant and prolific investigative reporters of the twentieth century.  In this work Gellhorn takes us from war in Spain, many areas of campaigns in WWII, the middle east as well as Viet Namn, South America and although not a war the disaster of Chernobyl. Some of her reporting and interviews were so damning and explosive they were not even published in the news media.  She told it like it was, interviewing the people who were effected by the events.  Perhaps the administrations of the leaders of the United States were afraid of the truth.  This was an eye opening series of interviews and a legacy of a journalist who braved the dangerous areas to get the story told for the people of the world.  Very revealing a remarkable collection of her stories.  Highly recommend.
