As such, it is the first comprehensive account and assessment of the effectiveness of international law in dealing with Iraqi refuge

His companion, however, large-limbed and strong, turning his bold and yet thoughtful face from side to side, and eagerly taking in all the strange, new life amidst which he found himself, was also a type, unfinished, it is true, but bidding fair to be the higher of the two.
