Heart of a Soldier

Heart of a Soldier is the extraordinary story of war, love and comradeship, danger and heroism, told by a Pulitzer Prize winner who is one of our finest writers.

When Rick Rescorla got home from Vietnam, he tried to put combat and death behind him, but he never could entirely. From the day he joined the British Army to fight a colonial war in Rhodesia, where he met American Special Forces' officer Dan Hill who would become his best friend, to the day he fell in love with Susan, everything in his remarkable life was preparing him for an act of generosity that would transcend all that went before.

Heart of a Soldier is a story of bravery under fire, of loyalty to one's comrades, of the miracle of finding happiness late in life. Everything about Rick's life came together on September 11. In charge of security for Morgan Stanley, he successfully got all its 2,700 men and women out of the south tower of the World Trade Center. Then, thinking perhaps of soldiers he'd held as they died, as well as the woman he loved, he went back one last time to search for stragglers.

Inima unui soldat este povestea extraordinara de razboi, dragoste si tovarasa, pericol si eroism, spusa de un castigator al Premiului Pulitzer care este unul dintre cei mai buni scriitori ai nostri. Cand Rick Rescorla a ajuns acasa din Vietnam, a incercat sa lase in urma lupta si moartea, dar nu a putut niciodata in totalitate.
