No True Glory

Regardless of one's personal position on the war in Iraq, there can be no argument about the determination and bravery of the U.S. Marines who are fighting there. The incomparable talents of Robertson Dean bring to life West's account of one of the hardest fought battles of the Iraq conflict, the battle for Fallujah. The story includes many examples of the unselfish displays of heroism, humor, honor, guts, and glory of members of the Marine Corps. This combination of material and voice makes for a compelling audiobook. Dean's deep, measured tone, devoid of faults or imperfections, places one in the heart of the battle to secure a violent city in which only the bullet ruled until Marine resolve was carried out.
