A totally admirable book, the memoir of a young man written out of
necessity, the only true reason to write a book . . . its
consciousness will become part of your life. --Jim Harrison,
author, Legends of the Fall and True North
After reading Fools Rush In, you may find yourselves giving much
greater consideration to what in life is important and what is
merely trivial. --Jon Krakauer, author, Into the Wild and Where Men
Win Glory: The Odyssey of Pat Tillman
Dante's Inferno for the MTV generation. What a guide Bill Carter
turns out to be to the hell of Sarajevo during the Bosnian War.
Oddly, and insipiringly, he finds some heaven there. --Bono, lead
singer, U2
I can't claim to know what life is about but I know if my life does
not entail helping other people, then it is not much of a life at
all. I keep a copy of this book near at hand for those moments when
I seem to forget who I am. And it helps, every time. --Charles
Bowden, author, Down by the River
