Just finished a really good book named "Hello To All That" by John Falk.http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?userid=2E7BTYVBnD&isbn=0805072187&itm=1His book is about his battle with depression and his time as a war correspondent in the Balkans. Years ago he wrote an article in Details magazine about two snipers who were hunting each other. The article was fascinating and sad and is re-capped in the book. Eventually HBO made it into a movie called "Shot Through The Heart" (be careful not to mix it with another HBO movie about Gary Gilmore). His life has been fascinating.The good article is in the June 2 Rolling Stone. It is about a human rights investigator named Peter Bouckaert, "The Atrocity Hunter". I'm sorry, but for lack of a better term, this man has true balls.http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story/_/id/7314875?pageid=rs.Politics&pageregion=single1
