Based on his Pulitzer Prize–winning story, Jim Sheeler’s unprecedented look at the way our country honors its dead; Final Salute is a stunning tribute to the brave troops who have lost their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan and to the families who continue to mourn them.

“ One of the great underreported stories of the Iraq war.”
—Janet Maslin, The New York Times

“ A must-read account.”
The Wall Street Journal

“ A powerful counterpoint to the impersonal statistics and verbal camouflage of military euphemisms that sanitize the true horror of war and dehumanize those who serve.”
The Washington Post Book World
