I bought this book thinking it was solely about a dog rescue from Fallujah, Iraq. Although the rescue formed the basis of the story, there was too much detailed reference to the on-going surrounding war for my liking.

There is an unnecessary (as far as I'm concerned) 11 page bibliography at the end, followed by an 'Acknowledgements' section. Are these here to 'pad' the book out?
I suppose I feel as though the wool was pulled over my eyes by the cute ... Read More: >>More Details |

From Baghdad, with Love: A Marine, the War, and a Dog Named Lavaby: Jay Kopelman, Melinda Roth June 03, 2008 |

Thoroughly enjoyable despite the despair of the Iraq War. Liked the writing style that allowed yet another insight into the atrocities of war. The different people who pulled out all the stops fascinated me, none more so than 'Sam'. Even though, from the photographs of Lava, you knew the puppy would eventually make it to America, the emotional journey of Jay Kopelman kept me rooting for both him and his beloved dog. Good story with a good message.
