Blood Diamonds Author:Greg Campbell The true story of the events that inspired the feature film Blood Diamonds starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Connelly, in theaters Dec 8th. Blood Diamonds is the gripping tale of how the diamond smuggling works, how the rebel war has effectively destroyed Sierra Leone and its people, and how the policies of the diamond industry.
Not the same as the movie - doesn't follow a specific character, more of an overview of the terrible situation in Sierra Leone. I thought the book was a little disjointed and kind of jumped around, but overall a good but troubling read.
