As civil war riled Sudan, young men —some orphans, some horribly injured, and some with terrible memories of suffering family members, hunger, and loved ones murdered —survived thousand-mile journeys. Once they became refugees, they were named the “Lost Boys” and soon the world would know their horrific tribulations. Using a mixture of anecdotes and data, this fascinating volume keeps readers intrigued even as it informs. Readers learn about the conflict that would eventually cause Sudan to become two countries with the north half dominated by Arab Muslims and the south populated by numerous ethnic groups. A map, reproductions, color photos, and sidebars break up the text. A time line, notes, glossary, reading list, website list, bibliography, and an index make this title useful for report writers.
