review 1: Great story. A chilling account of what the war in Iraq and Afhganistan was really like and not the sanitized version we get from the media.Exit Wounds is the deeply human account of one man's tour of the War on Terror, the moving story of life on a modern battlefield: from the nightmare of cheating death in a field strewn with mines, to the utter despair of looking into the face of a dead soldier before sending his body home to his mother.
review 2: Major General John Cantwell speaks his truth in this book, and though difficult at times to hear, his story is compelling. This glimpse into war and its effects on an honorable gentleman was an eye-opener. Though there are many graphic, detailed scenes included, the majority of the book is focused on hope and heali... moreng. If a man such as John Cantwell can admit to his demons, perhaps we all can take the time to listen and learn. I think that this book could serve as a primer for others dealing with PTSD and for their loved ones as well. I appreciated this well written, emotional, heart-breaking and hope-building memoir.*I received my copy from NetGalley.com in exchange for an honest review. less
