in America's Illegal Prison

guantanamofiles.jpg $24.95
By Andy Worthington

Extraordinary rendition, flse imprisonment, inhumane treatment—including torture and death in secretive detention sites—has forever destroyed the lives of hundreds of men, of whom I was one. This book is the first of its kind to collate accounts from the prisoners themselves."Moazzam Begg, former Guantánamo detainee and spokesman for CagePrisoners

"A meticulous [book] about torture at the beginning of the twenty-first century. [Written] with poignancy, compassion and outrage."—Marty Fisher, Co-Producer of the film Taxi to the Dark Side

Who are the men imprisoned in Guantánamo and how did they come to be there? Held illegally without charge or trial, they remain for the most part entirely unknown to the outside world. Who can speak for them? Based on the Pentagon's own documents, this passionate and brilliantly detailed book brings their stories to the world for the first time.
