NOW A MAJOR FEATURE DOCUMENTARYDetermined to cover the Syrian regime's brutal crackdown on dissent and the devastating impact of the war on Syria's civilians, veteran photographer Paul Conroy and Marie Colvin,one of the foremost war correspondents of her generation, decided to smuggle themselves across enemy lines and into the blood and terror of Homs. But tragedy struck before the pair could finish documenting the slaughter. A rocket killed Colvin and ripped a hole in Conroy's leg. As Syrian ground forces closed in on his position,Conroy was forced to make a terrifying last-ditch attempt to escape from a regime that appeared determined to murder him. Under the Wire is the epic, untold account of Conroy and Colvin's last, tragic assignment together. A rare and touching portrait of an extraordinary woman driven by an unquenchable desire to 'bear witness', it is as much a tale of courage and survival as it is the poignant account of a friendship forged amid the carnage of war.

Thoughts about these little backyard denizens are expressed in verse of various meters and rhythms. The colors and soft edges of the illustrations, done in block and gadget printing, contribute to the ambience of a warm, hazy summer day.

Tardily the cloud gates, far eastward, opened to a new-bom day; liquid glories licked the tree-spiked horizon. A misty sheen of orange and purple drifted across lake and forest and wiped the last sombre shadows from the mystery-enshrouded world. Throughout the greening aisles wild life awoke and to the music of God swind-played organ ascended the chanted thanks of His wild creatures. Standing on the shore of the lake, a young man watched the wondrous streamers transform his solitude. Upon his bronzed face the morning sunlight lingered, and in his dark, wide-set eyes rested a deep perplexity bom of the dumb groping for the solution of what was still to him a mystery. Linked to the wild, he was its worshipper, but one who could read the Lords Prayer in the lighting skies. In the faint glow that dawned like a smile of promise Our Father which art in heaven With the out-sweeping glory Thy kingdom come And with the purple haze on lake and tree-tops, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
