Book Reviews of In a Time of War: The Proud and Perilous Journey of West Point's Class of 2002
Book Review: A Must Read for All Americans
Summary: 4 Stars
A truly insightful work of the heavy burden carried by so few in executing the Global War on Terror. While the focus is on a handful of West Point graduates, their stories are in many ways a reflection of the experiences for most of our service members of all ranks and backgrounds. Not only does the author bring the "soldier" to life, he also provides an inside perspective on the triumphs, the struggles and the impact of loss on the soldiers' families. Turn off CNN and Fox News --- read this book for a frontline view of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
