A pair of scruffy college students describes how they left their retail jobs at Fenway Park to run the desk in Baghdad's Coalition Provisional Authority that served as an interface between the CPA and the Iraqi people, a job during which they witnessed firsthand the stresses of war on everyday people, as well as a range of disturbing illegal activities. Reprint.

Ray LeMoine dropped out of Northeastern University in 1999 and spent the next five years running the "Yankees Suck" T-shirt operation outside Fenway Park. As CEO, he was based everywhere from Port-au-Prince, Haiti, to Spain's Basque region to Revere, Massachusetts. In early 2004, he traveled to Baghdad with Jeff Neumann to help spread freedom and democracy. He lives in New York.
Jeff Neumann worked as a volunteer NGO coordinator for the Coalition Provisional Authority in Baghdad in early 2004 after several failed attempts at becoming a professional poker player. He currently resides in New York City and continues to travel as much as possible while trying to stay out of third-world jails.
Donovan Webster is an award-winning journalist and author. His work has appeared in The New Yorker, National Geographic, Vanity Fair, Smithsonian, and The New York Times Magazine, among other publications. He is currently employed as spiritual adviser and bail bondsman for Jeff Neumann and Ray LeMoine.

Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This all-access, inside-out view of what the American occupation of Iraq really looks like on the ground is the story of two young Americans who went to Baghdad without any real plan and discovered they weren't the only ones. Underqualified but ingenious, Ray and Jeff found work with the Coalition Provisional Authority providing humanitarian aid to the Iraqi people amid an appalling atmosphere of corruption, incompetence, and horror. Gritty and irreverent, this is a wild ride inside the Red Zone and a strikingly original portrait of the real Iraq. Neumann and Lemoiner describe how they became the "Hawkeye Pierce and Trapper John MacIntyre of the Iraq War"--two young American gonzos who came to help, joined the Coalition Provisional Authority, and witnessed enough corruption, confusion, and brutality to fill the pages of a very good book. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Codice articolo 9780143038160
