War-Torn Island tells the story behind the modern crisis on Sri Lanka, where an ethnic conflict has left a legacy of violence. Stemming from a history of mistrust and competition between the Sinhalese majority and the Tamils -- the country's largest minority -- Sri Lanka's internal war has affected virtually everyone on this small island.War Torn Island, was a very interesting book based on the civil war in Sri Lanka, sometimes i felt the book was written in favour of the Sinhalese , but other then that Lawrence J Zwier did a very good job.
