Early Praise for "Boots on the Ground"
"Karl Zinsmeister's splendid report from within the maelstrom of
combat demonstrates how the public can benefit when America's
superb military is closely observed by a superb reporter."
--George F. Will, news columnist
"A fast-moving story of courage and competence, written by an
observer who offers a far different picture from what was presented
by our mainstream media. A moving tribute to what free soldiers
united in a common cause can accomplish."
--Victor Davis Hanson, military historian
"The finest, most objective piece of war journalism I've read since
Ernie Pyle in WWII. Tells the story after talking to all grades of
soldiers. No one else took time to tell the full story."
--Burton Poole, Lt. Col., USAF, Retired
"The most powerfully real 'war experience' I will probably ever
have. I applaud its insight, voluminous factual information, the
personal stories collected from many soldiers, and especially the
discoveries about the power of love in extreme life and death
situations. Karl Zinsmeister has done an invaluable service to
America in getting to the heart and soul of this war."
--Mary Lavato, a soldier's mother
