Opis

G. Mark LaFrancis, a veteran and an accomplished journalist and writer, has interviewed more than 100 soldiers who served in Iraq and Afghanistan and their loved ones. The interviews span more than 250 hours. They have opened their hearts and souls, offering a window into their world. Thus, a collection of poignant and enlightening poems inspired by their stories has unfolded. Some stories are funny, some uplifting, and some deeply sorrowful. The soldiers and their families in this project have asked for anonymity, thus names have been changed, and specific circumstances altered for them. Although this book is entitled "Book Three: Home," some of the stories reflect soldiers' lives overseas, their "home" away from home. "In Their Boots: Poems Inspired by Soldiers and Their Loved Ones" is not about the war, but about the warriors ... over there, and at home.
