Description
In this affecting first-person account, a celebrated CBS newsman recounts the forty days he spent imprisoned in Iraq during the Persian Gulf War—an ordeal marked by fear, uncertainty, and the relentless pressure of survival. As he moves through the experience, he also explores how memory becomes both refuge and burden, shaping the way he endures the present and makes sense of what happened. The book illuminates the human cost of conflict, the psychological toll of captivity, and the fragile line between endurance and collapse. Written with the clarity and immediacy of a seasoned journalist, it offers a powerful portrait of trauma—and of the resilience required to carry it forward.
