Please join us Monday, 11/14 at 7 p.m. at UConn Barnes & Noble in Downtown Storrs for Ron Farina presenting his new book OUT OF THE SHADOWS.
Discover the stories of nine remarkable American women soldiers wounded while serving in Iraq or Afghanistan. Based on hours of personal interviews, Out of the Shadows: Voices of American Women Soldiers pieces together the unique lives of these women who served side by side with their male counterparts in war-torn Iraq and Afghanistan.
Out of the Shadows honors the legacy and inconceivable sacrifice of each of these women. This tribute is meant to honor all of America’s women soldiers, their inarguable bravery and heroism-and to lay bare for all the world to see the heart, courage, and sacrifices of the American Woman Soldier.
