A CUP OF COMFORT^® FOR MILITARY FAMILIES

STORIES THAT CELEBRATE HEROISM ON THE HOME FRONT

Edited by Colleen Sell

WHAT’S THE STORY?

There are more than 150,000 American Troops currently serving overseas. But, it’s said that military life is “not for the faint of heart.”   When soldiers go to war—their mothers, fathers, spouses and children do too—with feelings of loneliness, seeming neglect and fear.

In A Cup of Comfort for Military Families: Stories that Celebrate Heroism on the Home Front  (November 11, 2008; Adams Media) edited by Colleen Sell readers will experience the pride that families and friends feel when a loved one chooses to put his or her needs aside for the benefit of our country. In this collection of personal essays readers will meet Allison whose dad brought the world to her one piece at a time through coins picked up in his military travels and S. Ann Robinson the mother of a soldier who wills her son not to go to Iraq—and struggles with the bravery she sees in his eyes.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR YOUR AUDIENCE?

A Cup of Comfort for Military Families—just in time for Veteran’s Day —helps readers keep hopes up at home while loved ones are on the front lines.  Though one day is certainly not enough to honor the brave men and women who fight for our freedoms this book continues to honor their commitment page after page.

Whether a husband whose wife is defending freedom today or a grandchild who wants to know why her grandfather is called “hero”—A Cup of Comfort for Military Families—is a timely collection that will span generations.
