Seller's Description:
Very Good. Book Octavo, softcover, near fine. Giftable. 328pp. An important human rights document, Wu's dramatic memoir, written with New York Times reporter Vecsey, chronicles his recent campaign to expose China's slave-labor camp system, six to eight million inmates in 1155 camps rife with beatings, torture, murders and near starvation conditions. He also presents shocking evidence that China is executing prisoners to harvest their organs for transplants, and that China's prison-made goods, everything from shoes to tea to tools, are exported to the U.S.
