Kitabın bir benzeri yok. Akademisyen Nevin Yazıcı tarafından açık kaynaklardan sabırla ve itinayla gerçekleştirilen bu çalışma, Genelkurmay Başkanlığı ve Hakkâri’deki askeri birliklerin 1984’ten günümüze kadar uzanan mücadelesinin bir güncesi niteliğinde. Bu çalışma aynı zamanda terörle mücadele sırasında şehit olan vatan evlatlarının aziz anısı adına yerine getirilmiş bir görev niteliği de taşıyor. Çünkü bu kitap Hakkâri’de şehit olan tüm asker, polis ve köy korucularının nerede ve nasıl şehit olduğunu kaydetmekte, toprağın nasıl kanla vatan yapıldığının yüzlerce acı hikâyesini vermektedir. Yine bu kitapta, Türkiye’nin PKK ile mücadelesinin aşamalarını ve PKK terör eylemlerinin hangi süreçlerden geçtiğini bulacaksınız. Üzüleceksiniz, şehit kanları kurumadan terör örgütüyle yapılan pazarlıklar sonucu Hakkâri özelinde ülkenin adım adım nasıl terör örgütünün inisiyatifine terk edildiğini ibretle okuyacaksınız.
