This eyewitness account differs from the many other books on the Persian Gulf War in that it deals primarily with human-interest elements rather than military matters. Kelly, a journalist who traveled extensively in the countries that were affected by the Gulf conflict, chronicles the vagaries of the war and its impact on the lives of the people in a revealing and disturbing text. The narrative line is lively and easy to follow. 
His book received the PEN Martha Albrand Award for First Nonfiction in 1994. Ted KOPPEL compared Kelly's book to journalist Michael Herr's Dispatches saying that Kelly had captured the Gulf War in print as definitively as Herr had in Vietnam

Kelly was killed while in Iraq in 2003 ( during the post 9/11 invasion ) 10 years after he published this book. 
Firmly based on the writings of Kubler Ross and the best of modern psychotherapy, the book uses case histories and personal stories to console and encourage the reader. It also covers the particular problems of stillbirth and neo-natal death and offers some concrete ideas for the kinds of policies which hospitals might adapt in these cases.
