Title: A people betrayed
Description: "A People Betrayed contains a full narrative account of how the genocide unfolded. It describes its scale, speed and intensity. It is a terrible indictment, not just of the UN Security Council, but of governments and individuals who could have prevented what was happening but chose not to do so." "Drawing on a series of in-depth interviews, the author also tells the story of the unrecognized heroism of those who stayed on during the genocide; volunteer UN peacekeepers; their Force Commander, the Canadian Lt-General Romeo A Dallaire; and Philippe Gaillard, the head of a delegation of the international Committee of the Red Cross, helped by medical teams from Medecins Sans Frontieres."--Jacket.
