Touching Family War Story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
If you think you know the story of Army wives, think again. This book takes you through every gut-wrenching step of a deployment from the soldier's family's viewpoint. Wives and children pay the highest price when daddy leaves for war. Author Melissa Seligman doesn't hold anything back, freely sharing sorrow, worry, anger, depression, and recovery. When you sit down to read this book, don't expect to get up without finishing. Grab your handkerchief, and maybe a stiff drink, and as you read remember the thousands upon thousands of American families who are living the same story.
Very accurate picture...

of the many conflicting emotions experienced during a deployment. It's like someone is reading my mind and writing this all down. Excellent book!

I appreciate the open and honest reality of life as a military spouce and mother that this book shares. This is a great tribute to mothers and spouces that gives a small insight to our lives. The book is for a wide audience, not just military. Showing some of the many thoughts, experiences and things we have in common with each other as wives and mothers is well depicted in the book. Not only did I read the book, but my husband did as well. Thank you to the author and her family for sharing.
