Peter Laufer -- From Battlefields to Butterflies
Praised by the LA Times as a "Venn diagram of the beautiful and bizarre," Peter Laufer's latest book, "The Dangerous World
of Butterflies" diverts the veteran author and journalist from his usual reportage on war and politics. Instead he investigates
the wars between butterfly breeders and "huggers," hobbyists and poachers, collectors and smugglers. Laufer joins us to discuss
both his hard-edged and more light-hearted journalistic adventures. His other books include "Mission Rejected: U.S. Soldiers
Who Say No to Iraq."
