Book: Elie Wiesel-Messenger for Peace. by Heather Lehr Wagner?

I just got done reading an autobiography on Elie Wiesel titled "Modern Peacemakers-Elie Wiesel-Messenger for Peace" by Heather Lehr Wagner. well, in all honesty, I only read HALF of the book because it was so boring. Which stinks cause it was a $30 book. It looked like it would be interesting, but it wasn't.

If anyone has read this book, maybe you can help me understand a few things...
First, What makes Elie Wiesel worthy of having been given a Nobel Peace Prize (in 1986)? I'm not being sarcastic, I'm curious. I really don't want to finish the book, because well, if it hasn't stated why by the halfway mark, i'm like :( what the heck?

Also, in this book there is NO introductory or preface, so I don't know why Heather would want to write a biography about him.

If someone could give me any information on these two questions, I'd appreciate it!

Thanks! :)
