Description: Elliot Ackerman has reckoned with the horrors of war from many angles, he has guided fellow Marines through brutal urban combat in Iraq, interviewed Syrian Democratic activists about their failed revolution and sat down with a former member of al-Qaeda in Iraq to discuss the future of the Middle East. In his new book, "Places and Names: On War, Revolution, and Returning," Ackerman, a National Book Award finalist, journalist, and decorated Marine, weaves together these stories and others in a meditation on contemporary geopolitics and the terrible lure of combat.
