For Love of Country

This heartfelt audiobook tells the stories of American soldiers who fought in Iraq and Afghanistan, with an emphasis on personal courage, valor, and loss. It also follows some of them back to the U.S. and shows many of them making contributions to their local communities. Rajiv Chandrasekaran narrates his own book in a serviceable voice, and his pace keeps the book moving. Chandrasekaran has a great deal of respect for the veterans and their stories, and that's the way he approaches the text. He doesn't inject any emotion or much in the way of vocal dynamics into his reading, but his plain voice lets the words shine through so listeners can experience the true voices--those of the soldiers.
