    1. Fink must have experienced difficult, terrible, and frustrating challenges crafting the book, she works hard to remain objective in her reporting. conducting over 500 interviews, which was great evidence of her meticulous research. Her experience in various conflict zones around the world and her subsequent work as a journalist make her particularly qualified to sift through the chaotic reports. it’s obviously done lots of research and writing.
