Not One More Mother's Child

the long version

"Cindy Sheehan lost her son in an ambush in Iraq in 2004. As information became available verifying that the war was based on lies and "cooked intelligence," she began speaking out and testifying in the halls of Congress. In August 2005, she went to Crawford, Texas, to confront President Bush, and the floodgates of a renewed American peace movement were opened. Ten thousand people joined her, and millions more worldwide.". "Cindy Sheehan is a moving writer and vibrant storyteller. During her first year of activism, she chronicled her thoughts and actions, and now she shares them for the first time in book form. Reflecting on war and peace, truth and accountability, she takes the Bush administration to task for its corruption and incompetence and tells the story of her own journey from grieving mom to ardent activist. Cindy Sheehan is founder of Gold Star Families for Peace."--BOOK JACKET.
