Rent I Am a Soldier, Too: The Jessica Lynch Story

Synopsis

In this volume, award-winning journalist Bragg details the attack, capture, injuries, and imprisonment of Private First Class Jessica Lynch, and her subsequent release. Traveling across Iraq with her unit during the 2003 U.S.-led invasion of that country, Lynch was captured and held by Iraqi forces, then removed from the hospital by American forces--an event that was quickly capitalized on by the military, George W. Bush's government, and the media for a variety of sometimes opposing purposes. Bragg also explores Lynch's past and the effect that her capture had on her family and the people in her town.
