Download The War Comes Home: Washington's Battle against America's Veterans AudioBook Free
The War Comes Home is the first book to systematically document the U.S. government's disregard of soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. Aaron Glantz, who reported extensively from Iraq through the first 3 years of this warfare and has been confirming on the plight of veterans since, levels a devastating indictment up against the Bush administration because of its bald disregard of soldiers and its own disingenuous reneging on the benefits. Glantz interviewed more than one hundred recent warfare veterans, and here he intersperses their haunting first-person accounts with investigations into specific concerns, like the scandal at the Walter Reed Military Medical Center. This timely book will more than provide us with a personal connection to those whose service has cost them so dearly. It compels us to confront how America snacks its veterans and think about what kind of land deifies its soldiers and then casts them off as harmed goods.
