Not One More Mother's Child, by Cindy Sheehan
Cindy Sheehan lost her son Spc. Casey Austin Sheehan in an ambush in Sadr City, Baghdad, in early 2004. As information became available revealing that the war in Iraq was based on lies, Cindy began speaking out against the violence and demanding the troops come home. In August 2005, she went to Texas to ask President Bush to explain "the noble cause" for the war he cited in his speeches, and her efforts attracted thousands and drew worldwide attention. Not One More Mother's Child is a clear, well-written plea for ending Bush's senseless adventure.“There is a rhythm and tempo in her prose which recalls the great epic writers of Greece. She has a gift of candor and directness and epic simplicity, … a born writer.” —Dario Fo, Winner of Nobel Prize for Literature.
"I support Cindy Sheehan in everything she does, whether it’s running for Congress, or the president of the U.S. She’s a great American, not afraid to stand up for what she believes in." – Willie Nelson
“If anyone wonders why Cindy Sheehan has emerged as perhaps the single most galvanizing figure in the antiwar movement in America, they have but to hear her speak or better yet read herbook, Not One More Mother's Child. She speaks with a clarity, directness, and authenticity that remind us of how hungry we are for such voices in American politics.” —Lewis Klausner, C-SPAN Book TV
“Cindy is every soldier’s mother. If my mom was doing what Cindy Sheehan is doing, I would want someone like me to support her.” —Sean O'Neill, Iraq Veterans Against the War
