Paolo Pellegrin was on assignment for the New York Times and Newsweek in Lebanon during the conflict in July and August 2006. This onslaught saw one of the most indiscriminate and relentless attacks on a civilian population of recent times. Along with diary entries by Scott Anderson, the journalist he was travelling with, Double Blind speaks of the hidden attacked from afar and above by the unseen, whilst civilians lost everything. Pellegrin has since been awarded the Robert Capa Gold Medal, the W. Eugene Smith Fund and was awarded first prize in the General News category of World Press Photo for his work covering the conflict.

WINNER OF Pictures of the Year International Award 2008 for BEST USE BOOK

The onslaught in Lebanon during the months of July and August 2006 resulted in not only the deaths of over 600 Lebanese civilians but also an almost complete destruction of the country's infrastructure: schools, roads, hospitals and homes. In total Hezbollah launched 2500 rockets into Israel, resulting in the deaths of 36 Israeli civilians, and the wounding of hundreds more.

Paolo Pellegrin (Magnum Photos) and journalist Scott Anderson were in Lebanon during the conflict, on assignment for The New York Times. Pellegrin's photographs intimately capture the fear and powerlessness of the Lebanese population in the face of the ceaseless Israeli air strikes, revealing the terror and despair of families and friends witnessing the deaths of their loved ones, whilst around them their homes were destroyed. In particular Pellegrin also documented the aftermath of the attack on the village of Qana in southern Lebanon; many of the victims children, his photographs reveal the immense suffering of the civilians involved.

Alongside his work exposing the consequences of indiscriminate attacks on a civilian population is a 3000-word account by Scott Anderson, who accompanied Pellegrin in Lebanon. Pellegrin and Anderson were both wounded in a missile attack by an Israeli drone, which fired on their vehicle as they traveled through the city of Tyre. Along with the civilians of southern Lebanon, they were stranded for weeks under heavy bombing and air strikes by the IDF. The attack at Qana, also the second one to strike the village in living memory, soon after prompted the singer Patti Smith to respond in the form of a song, entitled 'Qana', the words and music of which form her contribution to the book.

Best chew toy we have ever purchased.
Flavor Name: Classic, Size: Large
My moderately active 80lb Lab - Pit mix has been steadily working on this bone for over a year. He doesnt chew it every day but he does regularly chew it for 30 or more minutes at a time. He has only been chewing on the smooth end, and the only wear it shows is a slight thinning and some grooved tooth marks. It has not had any chunks come off, and has never developed any sharp edges that make it hard to play with. It has never smelled or gotten slimy. It has never triggered resource guarding with him, but he likes it enough that presenting it to him will often get him to settle down and chew when he is in a rambunctious mood. Its size and shape allows him to hold the textured Y end with his paws while chewing on the smooth end. All in all a fantastic toy!

Happy Doggo
Flavor Name: Beef, Size: Small
He immediately loved it. He doesn't take to bones quickly, but this one caught his eye. He's a 35 lb shepherd mix, and loves antlers, and chews pretty hard. I love that it doesn't smell, and havne't seen or noticed flakes. Overall would recommend.

Excellent product, highly recommend
Flavor Name: Classic, Size: Large, Flavor Name: Classic, Size: Large
So glad I came across this brand that uses actual edible material instead of the plastic nylon! All of our dogs love the nylon chew toys, but it's so bad for them to eat the little plastic bits! I got the large one & it is VERY large! I actually wish they had a medium one, one in-between the large & small ones as an option. But our dogs still love the large one, just harder for them to carry around & boy is it loud each time it gets dropped on the hardwood floor. It's big enough both the pups can chew on it together at the same time & do just that. We've had it for a couple months now & they don't chew on it everyday, but a few times a week I'd say & it's a tad bit softer than the nylon chews, but I'd say it's held up very well!
