America's Captives: Treatment of POWs from the Revolutionary War to the War on Terror - Modern War Studies
Paul J. Springer
Notwithstanding the long shadows cast by Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo, the United States has been generally humane in the treatment of prisoners of war, reflecting a desire to both respect international law and provide the kind of treatment we would want for our own troops if captured. This work looks at American POW policy and practice.
