"No global flashpoint today is more important than the Hezbollah-Israel conflict, and no book I know does a better job in getting inside the thought-world of Hezbollah's followers. Nuanced, textured, and brutally honest, the book should be required reading for anyone who cares about war and peace in the Middle East."
—Noah Feldman, author of Scorpions: The Battles and Triumphs of FDR's Great Supreme Court Justices and The Fall and Rise of the Islamic State

"A revelation. Cambanis, one of the most talented foreign correspondents of his generation, has traveled far into the heart of Hezbollah, and what he has found there needs to be read about and studied by general readers and policy-makers alike. His reporting is not only fearless but sophisticated and penetrating, providing us with a vibrant image and unprecedented understanding of this powerful and secretive Islamist force."
—Matthew McAllester, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Bittersweet: Lessons from my Mother's Kitchen and Blinded by the Sunlight: Surviving Abu Ghraib and Saddam's Iraq
