From Battlefield to Backwoods: A Journey of Survival, Redemption, and Purpose
When the war ended, the silence began. Haunted by the ghosts of combat and burdened by a grief no uniform could carry, a soldier returned home—to a couch in September 2009, where he nearly ended it all. But fate, faith, and a gobble in the woods had other plans.
In this raw, powerful memoir, one veteran takes readers from the edge of suicide to the soul-healing pursuit of wild turkeys across the American wilderness. With every hunt, he rediscovers a lost part of himself—honor, purpose, brotherhood—and learns that healing doesn’t happen in a moment. It happens in motion.
Part survival story, part field journal, and all heart, this book is a call to arms for anyone who’s ever felt alone, forgotten, or broken. It's about carrying your scars into the woods and coming back with something more.
Perfect for:
✓ Veterans seeking connection and hope
✓ Hunters who know the wild holds more than game
✓ Readers who believe in second chances and sacred silence
This is not just a story about turkey hunting. It’s about finding your way back to life—one bird, one step, one sunrise at a time.
