Shake Hands with the Devil - The Failure of Humanity in Rwanda (Paperback)

When LGen. Romeo Dallaire received the call to serve as force commander of the UN Assistance Mission for Rwanda, he thought he was heading off to Africa to help two warring parties achieve a peace both sides wanted. Instead, he and the members of his small international force were caught up in a vortex of civil war and genocide. Abandoned by their home nations and the UN, Dallaire and his peacekeepers attempted to stem a tide of killings with only their personal altruism, resourcefulness and bravery. This book is an unsparing eyewitness account of the failure of humanity to stop the genocide, a classic of its kind.
