questions about your craigslist posting

Hi,
I saw your listing on Craigslist. Before I apply and take a couple
hours to work on the requested essay, I wanted to know more about the
book, so I can know whether I would be a good fit for the position. I
saw the book was about the evils of modern warfare. Could you be a
little more specific about the project? Who is the intended audience?
What's the thesis? I would be grateful to know anything more about the
project.

Here's a little bit about me. I worked in newspapers for a few years,
Texas state government for a couple years, and graduated from public
policy graduate school over a year ago. A couple years ago, I did
factchecking and editing on my father's book project. I've worked a
few political campaigns, including Obama's during the general
election. Right now, I'm making a living tutoring high school
students. As for my knowledge about modern warfare, I took a class on
counterinsurgency theory in grad school, and I read books and other
publications.

thank you,

[I READ BOOKS AND OTHER PUBLICATIONS]
