Monroe Mann
THE FIRST SELF-HELP BOOK
TO COME OUT OF MODERN COMBAT.
For fighting the war against living an ordinary life:
An inspirational guide for those in the pursuit of destiny.
No matter how lofty the goal, or how unlikely the victory, success can and should be yours. Inspired by the author’s combat deployment to Iraq, written while in Iraq, and sent off to his publisher prior to his departure back to the States, this collection of 100 ‘Battle Cries’ and ‘Fightin’ Words’ will help you keep your dreams alive ‘n kicking no matter what the obstacles.
On May 23rd, 2004, National Guardsman Monroe Mann (27) was busy producing a feature film, playing with his band, and running his business school for artists in New York City. On May 24th, Uncle Sam changed all that. With one phone call, civilian Monroe Mann transformed into Lieutenant Mann, Intelligence Officer, United States Army. He was going to war. Although his dreams were on hold, they were not shattered. Rather than give up on his ambitions, Mann looked at his 18-month combat sabbatical—not as a setback—but as an opportunity and a blessing. This book—his third—is one of the results.
