Summary |
On November 21, 2010, US Marine Lance Corporal Kyle Carpenter was posted on a rooftop in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, when an enemy grenade skittered across the roof. Without a second thought, Kyle jumped on the grenade to protect his friend who was stationed with him. Wounded from head to toe, it would take dozens of surgeries and almost three years in and out of the hospital to reconstruct his body, and from there, he began the process of rebuilding his life. This book tells Carpenter's story, encouraging us to become our best selves in the time we've been given on earth. Above all, it's about finding purpose in life, despite the significant challenges that may come your way. |
