Ishmael Beah's A Long Way Gone is a sobering firsthand telling of his time as a child soldier during Sierra Leone's decade-long civil war from 1991 to 2002. This memoir, or collection of Beah's memories of that time, chronicles the attack on Beah's village, his subsequent confusion as he wanders the area looking for food and shelter, his indoctrination (or brainwashing) as an unwilling child soldier, and the period after his escape from his home country to his arrival in the United States.
