- Summary:
- Winner of the 1998 European Publishers Award for Photography, this book is a powerful and provocative profile of the Karenni people in Burma, who have been engaged in a guerilla war for the past fifty years. The photojournalist Dean Chapman is among the few to visit the Karenni people, whom he lived with for two years. The Karenni's fight for independence from the Burmese military and Rangoon Government is portrayed on human level, as teenage Karenni boys go to battle. An important and unsettling book.
