"Tales of loss and death are woven among stories of love, resilience, and hope. Such powerful accounts and images of the war in Ukraine by a gifted storyteller who put himself at risk to bring these stories to the world.-Gail Snow, author Chris Briscoe is an incredible photographer and a consummate storyteller. His photos and stories of the war in Ukraine capture heartbreak and joy, fear and determination, and devastation and resiliency. His willingness to put himself at risk to capture and document the impact this war is having on its soldiers and citizens is commendable. I guarantee the stories and photos in this book will stay in your heart and your mind for a long time to come.-pkin. Amazon review ""Christopher Briscoe documents stories of devastation in the wake of the Russian invasion. Briscoe has been capturing the images and stories of the war-torn eastern European country that's fighting for its survival. The longtime photographer's resume is long and adventurous. He's captured images all over the world, including in Africa, Cambodia, Vietnam and Thailand. Outside his comfort zone, he says, is among his favorite places to be. The stories he has collected so far from the ground are immense and, many of them, intense."" - Holly Dillemuth, Ashland.news Christopher Briscoe's stories are more important than any news from the front lines. Through his eyes and heart he tells the stories of real people living through these horrible times. Briscoe humanizes their sorrows and brings hope of resilience and kindness. He has touched my heart as much as the Ukrainian stories have touched his.-Nataliya Danylkova MD- Mankato, Minnesota."
