In the Almond Orchard: Coming Home from War represents the experiences of American veterans who have served overseas, and who are readjusting to life in the United States, especially California, after their service. The poems of this collection explore accomplishment and sacrifice, suffering and healing. With power and bravery, Dr. Andy Jones speaks to the struggle of those who must hold within themselves two people, and exchange one life for another. In the Almond Orchard: Coming Home from War was made possible by support from YoloArts and the California Arts Council. Profits from the sale of this book will fund the Charles Ternes Creativity Prize for Veteran Students at the University of California, Davis
