false 3409511 1 <b>In a provocative anthology, two editors with opposing viewpoints present an unflinching collection of works reflecting on the nature of war.</b><br><br>Marc Aronson thinks war is inevitable. Patty Campbell thinks war is cruel, deceptive, and wrong. But both agree on one thing: that teens need to hear the truthful voices of those who have experienced war firsthand. The result is this dynamic selection of essays, memoirs, letters, and fiction from nearly than twenty contributors, both contemporary and historical &#8212; ranging from Christian Bauman's wrenching "Letter to a Young Enlistee" to Chris Hedges's unfl inching look at combat to Fumiko Miura's Nagasaki memoir, "A Survivor's Tale." Whether the speaker is Mark Twain, World War II correspondent Ernie Pyle, or a soldier writing a miliblog, these divergent pieces look war straight in the face &#8212; and provide an invaluable resource for teenagers today. 3449760 9 9 2008 War Is...: Soldiers, Survivors, and Storytellers Talk About War total:23|5:4|4:11|3:8|2:0|1:0| 23 88 47 8 4 0 false false Tue Sep 29 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 01 15:17:48 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 01 15:18:36 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 1 false false Fri Jul 25 07:02:13 -0700 2008 Fri Jul 25 07:04:18 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Aug 03 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 30 21:59:18 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 04 13:38:46 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Thu Feb 19 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Dec 03 05:38:38 -0800 2008 Thu Feb 19 20:26:24 -0800 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sun Jan 25 13:30:19 -0800 2009 Sun Jan 25 13:31:01 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Feb 03 14:42:39 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 03 14:43:00 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Sep 29 12:29:38 -0700 2008 Wed Oct 01 13:52:04 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Nov 17 17:45:55 -0800 2008 Thu Aug 13 10:58:54 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Nov 22 18:10:41 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 22 18:10:41 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Thu Nov 05 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 05 06:41:31 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 08 14:40:32 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Mon Sep 21 16:58:42 -0700 2009 Mon Sep 21 16:58:42 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri Sep 11 08:22:57 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 22 13:02:45 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sat Aug 29 14:29:43 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 29 14:29:43 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Jul 29 18:03:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 29 18:03:00 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Tue Jun 30 16:26:51 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 30 16:26:51 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Jun 07 11:40:34 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 07 11:40:42 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed May 20 18:22:04 -0700 2009 Wed May 20 18:22:04 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue May 19 13:02:08 -0700 2009 Tue May 19 13:02:08 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue May 19 10:31:22 -0700 2009 Tue May 19 10:31:22 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Tue May 12 13:11:32 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 01 22:16:12 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=3409511
