Synopsis
The Making and Un-making of a Marine is the record of one man's journey from the hell of the Vietnam War to the redemption of his soul. In this personal memoir by Larry Winters, we witness the loss of innocence of a young boy who's forced to take the role of a man by his father's own hand, then watch as he struggles to reshape his identity as both man and patriot while suppressing his rage against an unjust war. Surviving the atrocities of Viet Nam, Winters learns how to heal his invisible wounds and is reborn triumphant. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the pathway of warriorhood. It will also be essential to those with a loved one currently serving in Iraq and Afghanistan so they might guide their soldiers home toward a path of healing and forgiveness.
