An impressive array of activists, scholars, government officials, journalists, and landmine victims themselves are gathered here to tell the dramatic and inspiring story of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines (ICBL). Organized in the early 1990s, the ICBL is a network of more than one thousand nongovernmental organizations worldwide, working for a global ban on landmines. It was an important force behind the treaty to ban antipersonnel landmines that was signed in Ottawa in 1997, and which led to its being awarded the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize, along with its coordinator.

The Library of Congress CiP shows Cahill as author, but he's actually the editor of this collection of articles, of which he wrote two and collaborated on one. The 16 chapters address the terrible problem of land mines, which kill and maim thousands of people every month around the world, with more than 100 million mines currently deployed in over 60 countries. Contributors describe the terrible personal suffering as well as the debilitating medical problems and costs caused by land mines, with analysis of the roots of the problem, solutions, and goals for humanitarian assistance and policy changes.
