Description

This book is dedicated to the reporters, photographers, and journalists I worked with as we tried to make sense out of the tragic times that came to define much of Central The usa, especially tiny, bludgeoned El Salvador in the 1980s.

The wars that brought us together are forgotten now. So are the lessons they will have to have taught us. This book is a reminder of both.

Peeling away academia and officialdom from the conflict in El Salvador, presenting it as it fell at the backs of the Salvadoran people, the ones who come what may never in reality mattered in many official eyes, from no matter what country those official eyes might have peered.

These are snapshots of the underbelly of a in large part forgotten war that has wound up at the scrapheap with equally forgotten conflicts. This is a ground’s eye view of that war and of what it did to the peasants, the soldiers, the school kids and union leaders, the shopkeepers, the fishermen and artisans, the parish priests, the on a regular basis, unremarkable people who continuously wound up in unmarked graves, and also at the edit room floor.
