Life Lessons from Veterans: Lessons from Veterans provides an array of personal stories—from nightmarish fights on the islands of Iwo Jima to the shores of Normandy on D-Day. With unprecedented access to veterans and unpublished memoirs, Life Lessons from Veterans provides a new voice to the bravery and sacrifice of the American soldier defending our freedom through more than thirty stories. Available from ProQuest eBook Central.
Red, White & True: Even as we celebrate the return of our military from wars in the Middle East, we are becoming increasingly aware of the struggles that await veterans on the home front. Red, White, and True offers readers a collection of voices that reflect the experiences of those touched by war - from the children of veterans who encounter them in their fathers' recollections of past wars to the young men and women who fought in the deserts of Iraq and Afghanistan. The diversity of perspectives collected in this volume validates the experiences of our veterans and their families, describing their shared struggles and triumphs while honoring the fact that each person's military experience is different. Available from OverDrive.
