Overcoming the Battlefield

Fifteen chapters by a United States Army veteran who applies battlefield doctrine to the wars nobody sees: the mind, fear, debt, marriage, purpose.

The book opens on the nature of war and the building of resilience, then moves into the mind of a warrior — thought, discipline, and self-control under pressure. From there it works through inner strength drawn from prayer and fasting, the art of strategic thinking (planning your victory before the war begins), mastering fear, discipline as the soldier's secret, and trust as a fortress. The closing chapters go where few leadership books do: finding purpose, intimacy in marriage, the power of goal setting, and the legacy that remains after the final march.

A guide for military and civilian life, written by someone who has lived both.
