Review: true to life action
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 06 4, 2013
As a memoir, this book is captivating from the beginning and is an account of intense circumstances that very few Americans experience. The author, a US Marine, openly shares his encounters overseas, taking the reader through extreme circumstances, political unrest and combat. He writes in such a way that the reader can fully learn more about his character and experiences. It is well written, but must be pursued at the beginning before it picks up for a read that cannot be put down.I felt that I got to know the author and learned of real-life activity that takes over the lives of the troops who put their lives on the line.
