Editorial Reviews

Book Description

Personal letters to Michael Moore from soldiers, veterans and their families—published for the first time—sharing their thoughts and feelings about the war in Iraq, with an Introduction by Moore.

Fahrenheit 9/11, the #1 documentary of all time, generated lots of attention and debate—and lots of mail. Michael Moore received scores of letters from active-duty GIs stationed in Iraq as well as family members of those soldiers and military veterans, all wanting to share a side of a story that hasn’t been told elsewhere. With the publication of Will They Ever Trust Us Again?, they will finally be heard.

Will They Ever Trust Us Again? goes beyond politics and gets to the heart of what the fighting in Iraq and the War on Terror are really about, from the people affected firsthand. The title is taken from a line in Fahrenheit 9/11, which asks the question: Can our men and women in uniform ever trust our country’s leaders again, trust that they will be sent into war only when absolutely necessary? To many in the military, and those who wrote letters to Michael Moore, that answer is no.

A provocative collection for anyone who truly supports our troops, Moore’s latest book will certainly be the most talked-about publication of the year.

I'm sure it will be a great left wing read, unfortunately my guess is it will not represent the voice of the majority of our troops, who support President Bush and what we're doing in Iraq.

I just found out about it so I dunno. It's being sold on Amazon.com so I don't know anything else about it. Sorry. If I hear anything I'll post about it.
