Summary
Rory Stewart is a British diplomat, journalist and former fellow at the Carr Center for Human Tights Policy at Havard's Kennedy School of Government. At the age of 29, following the fall of the Taliban in Afghanistan, Stewart, walked alone across the country. The sometimes harrowing journey took him two years. He wrote about it in the memoir The Places in Between. Then, after the U.S. invasion of Iraq, Stewart was appointed a provincial governor. His account is The Prince of the Marshes: And Other Occupational Hazards of a Year in Iraq. Rory is from Scotland. Deputy Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction, Ginger Cruz. She oversees the audit, inspection, and investigation operations established to prevent waste, fraud, and abuse in the U.S. reconstruction of Iraq. Cruz just returned from Iraq. Finally, film critic David Edelstein reviews Oliver Stone's new film, World Trade Center which centers on the story of two Port Authority policemen trapped in the rubble of the towers.
