«Peace Kills» is a collection of reportage and essays by journalist P. J. O'Rourke, published by Pan Macmillan in paperback, in English.
O'Rourke travels through scenes of American foreign policy, from Kosovo to Iraq, and observes with irony refugees, peacekeepers and citizens with new consumer freedoms.
