Ranging from war journalism to crime stories to profiles on
influential leaders to pieces on sports, gambling and the impending
impact of supercomputers on the practice of medicine, this
collection is Bowden at his best. Pieces that will appear in the
collection include, "The Three Battles of Wanat", which tells the
story of a bloody engagement in Afghanistan and the extraordinary
years-long fallout within the US military, "The Drone Warrior," in
which Bowden examines the strategic, legal and moral issues
surrounding armed drones, and "The Case of the Vanishing Blonde,"
which first appeared in Vanity Fair and recounts the chilling story
of a woman who went missing from a Florida hotel only to turn up
near the Everglades, brutally beaten, raped and still alive. Also
included are profiles on a diverse range of notable and influential
people such as Joe Biden, Kim Jong-un, Judy Clarke who is well
known for defending America's worst serial killers and David Simon,
the creator of the successful HBO series The Wire.
