Book Description
The trails of adventure chart the course of a life. In the case of Marianne Kelsey, she charts a course during a period of history when the world was recovering from the second World War and a Cold War had blanketed the globe. Traveling with her family as they moved from military stations across the U.S. and Europe, she saw up close not only the tumult of the times but the charm and grace of the old world that still glowed as it was transforming into the modern era. The locations, the people, the fun, the tribulations, and her growth into a cosmopolitan beauty are a pleasure to experience over those exciting and formative years. Go back in time and join her as she shares the wonder, glamour, excitement, and challenges of a world that invites us to return and enjoy what once was.

The Unforgiving Minute
Author: Craig M. Mullaney
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1440686270
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
“The Unforgiving Minute is one of the most compelling memoirs yet to emerge from America's 9/11 era. Craig Mullaney has given us an unusually honest, funny, accessible, and vivid account of a soldier's coming of age. This is more than a soldier's story; it is a work of literature." —Steve Coll, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Ghost Wars and The Bin Ladens "One of the most thoughtful and honest accounts ever written by a young Army officer confronting all the tests of life." —Bob Woodward In this surprise bestseller, West Point grad, Rhodes scholar, Airborne Ranger, and U. S. Army Captain Craig Mullaney recounts his unparalleled education and the hard lessons that only war can teach. While stationed in Afghanistan, a deadly firefight with al-Qaeda leads to the loss of one of his soldiers. Years later, after that excruciating experience, he returns to the United States to teach future officers at the Naval Academy. Written with unflinching honesty, this is an unforgettable portrait of a young soldier grappling with the weight of war while coming to terms with what it means to be a man.
