A Crime So Monstrous
Face-to-face With Modern-day Slavery
BY E. BENJAMIN SKINNER, FOREWORD BY RICHARD HOLBROOKE
Brief Description:
There are more slaves in the world today than at any time in history. With years of reporting in such places as Haiti, Sudan, India, Eastern Europe, The Netherlands, and even suburban America, he has produced a vivid testament and moving reportage on one of the worst evils of our time. "A great storyteller, Skinner brings the whole underworld of traffickers and their victims to life. At the same time, he shows how complex the phenomenon really is, and why the solutions of would-be abolitionists in this country have proven misguided or simply futile." -- Frances Fitzgerald
