'This book will take your breath away, break your heart, and leave
you in awe' President Bill Clinton _______ Soldiers, sailors,
airmen and Marines speak in their own words about real life in
today's armed forces. These are the brutally honest stories usually
only shared amongst comrades in arms; stories of life-and-death
decisions, and learning how to live with the effects of horrific
injuries, both physical and mental. In the voices of the men and
women who've fought overseas, from Vietnam to Iraq and Afghanistan,
this is a rare eye-opening look into what it's really like to wear
the uniform, fight in combat, lose friends and come home. Walk in
my Combat Boots is a powerful collection of never-before-told war
stories crafted from hundreds of original interviews by James
Patterson, the world's most trusted storyteller, and First Sergeant
US Army (Ret.) Matt Eversmann, part of the Ranger unit involved in
the infamous Battle of Mogadishu portrayed in the movie Black Hawk
Down. _______ 'Raw, authentic, and above all, inspiring' Admiral
William H. McRaven, US Navy (Ret.) 'Each of these stories of the
personal experience of combat is unique, homespun, and honest'
Brigadier General Peter Dawkins, US Army (Ret.) 'Painfully raw,
improbably funny, and completely human' Stanley A. McChrystal,
General, US Army (Ret.) 'A vivid and authentic portrait of life in
the modern military . . . Powerful. This edifying collection
captures the highs and lows of the military experience' Publishers
Weekly 'Urgent and full of suspense . . . In this wide-ranging,
consistently absorbing collection, the authors cover the entire
spectrum of American military action during the last 50 years'
Kirkus 'Extraordinary . . . a deeply intimate insider's look'
