I'm reading "Shake Hands with the Devil" by Canadian Lt. Gen. Romeo Dallaire right now; a hefty 500+ pager about Dallaire's service at the force commander to the UN Assistance Mission to Rwanda from 1993-1994.
Dalliare was a Fellow at the Kennedy School of Government while I was there, as well as the keynote speaker at our graduation. I've found his humanity and humility to be profoundly moving, as he speaks very openly of the failure in Rwanda.
