Product Information
An insightful and empathic inside look at the far-reaching impact of combat and service on military personnel and their families. There's no real homecoming for many veterans returning from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. They may go through the motion of daily life, but the terrible sights and sounds of war are still fresh in their minds. In this emphatic, inside look into the lives of combat veterans, Marguerite Bouvard reveals the lingering impact that these wars have had on combat personnel. Based on numerous interviews with veterans and their families, it examines the factors that have made these recent conflicts especially trying - including the extreme duress that is a daily part of a soldier's life, and the all-volunteer nature of the armed forces and the gulf this creates between military personnel and civilian society. For veterans, their families, and especially civilians unaware of how much these soldiers have endured, The Invisible Wounds of War is important reading.Product Identifiers
