Epilogue.
520 2 "During his years as a POW in North Korea, 'Doc' Boysen
endured hardships he never intended to pass along,
especially to his family. Men who refused to eat starved;
his children would clean their plates. Men who were weak
died; his children would develop character. They would
also learn to fear their father, the hero. In a memoir at
once harrowing and painfully poignant, Catherine Madison
tells the stories of two survivors of one man's war: a
father who withstood a prison camp's unspeakable
inhumanity and a daughter who withstood the residual
cruelty that came home with him. Doc Boysen died fifty
years after his ordeal, his POW experience concealed to
the end in a hidden cache of documents. In The War Came
Home with Him, Madison pieces together the horrible tale
these papers told--of a young captain in the U.S. Army
Medical Corps captured in July 1950, beaten and forced to
march without shoes or coat on icy trails through
mountains to camps where North Korean and Chinese captors
held him for more than three years. As the truth about her
father's past unfolds, Madison returns to a childhood
troubled by his secret torment to consider, in a new light,
the telling moments in their complex relationship.
Beginning at her father's deathbed, with all her questions
still unspoken, and ending with their final conversation,
Madison's dual memoir offers a powerful, intimate
perspective on the suppressed grief and thwarted love that
forever alter a family when a wounded soldier brings his
war home"--|cProvided by publisher.
