Publisher's description:

Born in 1948, just as the post-World War II order was taking shape, Sergio Vieira de Mello - a humanitarian, peacemaker and state builder - died in a terrorist attack on UN headquarters in Iraq in 2003 as the battle lines in the twenty first-century's first great polarizing struggle were drawn. This biography presents this man's story.
