Book Review of Another Man's War: The True Story of One Man's Battle to Save Children in the Sudan

Another Man's War: The True Story of One Man's Battle to Save Children in the Sudan
DieHard avatar reviewed on


This is a story that needs to be told. The horrors that face children in Sudan on a daily basis requires the world's attention. Sam Childers found himself as an unintended protector of these children and he has made it his life's work. However, the book spends far too much time on his pre-Sudan life and like most memoirs becomes self-serving and reads like a cry for attention. It's why I rarely read memoirs. But in this case, the ends do justify the means and I recommend this book.
