Dirty wars and polished silver - Lynda Schuster

Growing up in 60s Detroit, Lynda Schuster felt convinced that life was happening somewhere else, and by the time she graduated high school, she was determined to find it. And find it she did. Dirty Wars and Polished Silver is Schuster's story of her life abroad as a foreign correspondent in war-torn countries, and as the wife of a U. S. Ambassador. Equal parts gripping and charming, this is a story about the lengths one woman went to for self-discovery and about how she ultimately found herself where she least expected to be: in essentially the same place, only wiser, saner, more resolved.
