Tells the fascinating story of how the author went from a childhood in Alaska to a civil war in Africa, the glitter (and grunge) of life in the Big Apple, backpacking overseas, and, finally, her true calling-law.
In "Justice at Guantanamo", Huskey tells the fascinating story of how she went from a childhood in Alaska to a civil war in Africa, the glitter (and grunge) of life in the Big Apple, backpacking overseas, and, finally, her true calling-law. Huskey was one of the first female lawyers to represent detainees of the Guantanamo Bay detention camp-including those in two cases that yielded a landmark Supreme Court decision allowing them to challenge their status in federal courts. "Justice at Guantanamo" delves into Huskey's visits to the camp's secretive, all-male world.
