Resumen del Editor

Discover “the stories America needs to hear” (Admiral William H. McRaven, US Navy (Ret.)) with these moving and powerful recollections of war, told by the men and women who lived them.

Walk in my Combat Boots is a powerful collection crafted from hundreds of original interviews by James Patterson, the world’s number one best-selling writer, and First Sergeant US Army (Ret.) Matt Eversmann, part of the Ranger unit portrayed in the movie Black Hawk Down.

These are the brutally honest stories usually only shared amongst comrades in arms. Here, in the voices of the men and women who’ve fought overseas from Vietnam to Iraq and Afghanistan, is a rare eye-opening look into what wearing the uniform, fighting in combat, losing friends and coming home is really like. Listeners who next thank a military member for their service will finally have a true understanding of what that thanks is for.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Up close war is a tapestry of individual stories, as painfully raw, improbably funny, and completely human as the soldiers themselves. James Patterson and my former Ranger comrade Matt Eversmann, have brilliantly woven together an image that is as compelling as it is entertaining." (Stanley A. McChrystal, general, US Army (ret.))

"This book will take your breath away, break your heart, and leave you in awe of the hard work, raw courage, ingenuity and resilience of the men and women who wear the boots. You'll hear them say why they do it, and how they deal with triumph, tragedy and living with the legacy of their service. Every American should read it." (President Bill Clinton)

"James Patterson is one of America's great storytellers. He is a also a first-rate reporter. He and Eversmann have collected stories of brave men and women who have defended our country. Each one is a profile in courage. Read this book and you will have even greater respect for those who serve in our military." (Chris Wallace, anchor, FOX News Sunday)

Everyone should read this book

This is an incredibly moving and powerful series of short stories from the men and women who defend our country. It is a window into both the physical and emotional wounds. My only comment is that the narrator’s voice didn’t match the emotion of the situations being described. I am a former Army officer that worked in the medical field and was incredibly moved by this book

Gripping

This story brings out a lot of emotions! The soldiers telling their feeling and commitment to their fellow soldiers is astonishing and commendable! So much patriotism is how I felt after hearing this book!

Great book.

Awesome! Past experiences and stories told through each chapter were awesome. This book locks you in as off your there and one can almost feel what is happening.

Interesting.

It’s interesting to hear these stories. I only listen to 1 or 2 at a time, so it takes a long time. It’s sad to hear about the sacrifices they made for so little

Awe inspiring listen

I didn't serve on the Vietnam War and have often regretted it. I also questioned whether I would have lived up to expectations had I served. Listening to this book was inspiring as it let me live vicariously the experiences of those who did serve and paid the price and overcame. I am humbled by their courage and determination. Saying thank you are too small and too little words to express the full measure of my gratitude for these people and others like them.

Eye opening

I listened to this with great respect for the men and women who courageously heard the call to duty and answered.
Bravery and commitment to their mission is like everything one would expect.
Loss of life and limb is explained with such clarity as to put you along side of each soldier telling their story.
A very new respect for these amazing people, who live daily with these memories. Who have to,after being trained to kill and survive have now to live with these Unimaginable images and physical proof of having served.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who thinks war is a part of life. These realities bring home a deep desire for peace and empathy for those who so bravely served.
God bless you all. Thank you for your brave service.
