Through War’s
Ravages Comes Peace
The meaning of war is brought
home in this compelling Vietnam War novel. After a fiery explosion,
Marine Corporal James Morrison wonders why he’s lying on his back
and it’s raining on a sunny day.
But it isn’t rain that he sees,
it’s human blood. Seriously injured, Morrison struggles to survive. The
reluctant warrior wakes up after a near-death experience, one that
changes his life forever.
It is 1968 and the height of the
Vietnam War. Over 500,000 American troops are employed in jungle combat
missions, but it is now time for Corporal Morrison to head home. Vietnam
was an unpopular war and Morrison’s welcome home is not what he
expected.
The wounded veteran
finds himself facing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, depression,
alcoholism and a failed marriage. Then he must face the ravages of
exposure to Agent Orange. Yet despite his bleak future, Morrison’s
faith, determination and courage leads to an inner peace never before
imagined. This is a valiant struggle for survival against very difficult
odds. Bloody Jungle Rain is historical fiction at its finest.
