520    Letters From the Front Lines is a remarkable account of 
       the lives and experiences of Americans at war in Iraq and 
       Afghanistan. This collection of correspondence preserves 
       for future generations the experiences of men and women in
       uniform and presents a unique perspective about what is 
       actually going on day-to-day in the tents, on the road, 
       and in the weeds in Iraq and Afghanistan. These letters 
       were written from the heart, and tell the truth about life
       on the front lines (lonely, hot and dangerous), as well as
       life on the home front (lonely, anxious and supportive). 
       Handwritten letters which, until the current conflict, 
       were the only source of communication home from the front 
       lines are being replaced by email and web logs or "blogs."
       This book reminds us how important it is to preserve these
       more ephemeral records of our nation's history. --Pub.
