Short Synopsis
Whether you served in the military, are a fan of military history, or just want to know more about your fellow man in times of war—this is the book for you.

Full Synopsis
Violence of Action is much more than the true, first-person accounts of the 75th Ranger Regiment in the Global War on Terror. Between these pages are the heartfelt, first-hand accounts from, and about, the men who lived, fought, and died for their country, their Regiment, and each other. Objective Rhino, Haditha Dam, recovering Jessica Lynch, the hunt for Zarqawi, the recovery of Extortion 17 and everything in between . . . These stories have been told many times in barracks rooms, bar tables, and backyard barbecues but they have never before been shared with the general public. It is time for those stories to be heard.

So much more than just stories from a specific unit; this book reveals the sights, smells, and emotions of everything that happens in war—good or bad. It will be seen as the quintessential, ageless work on the human condition in combat.

"Violence of Action is truly a book like no other ever written." ---Kerry Patton, author of Contracted: America's Secret Warriors

"I was blown away by the raw honesty of the book." ---Nick Palmisciano, President, Ranger Up

"Violence of Action is a must read for anyone that wants to know what our Rangers are all about and the unsung heroes they really are." ---Dr. Dale Comstock, author of American Badass
