‘Every historical era poses its great moral question,” writes Denny LeBoeuf, a contributor to “The Guantánamo Lawyers.” In this admirable compilation, Mark P. Denbeaux, a professor at Seton Hall University School of Law, and Jonathan Hafetz, a staff attorney in the ACLU’s National Security Project, have explored one of this generation’s great moral questions by assembling first-person reports from over 100 attorneys who represent prisoners held at Guantánamo Bay.
