Hardback. Condición: Good. In 2000, Rye Barcott was a student on an ROTC scholarship when he first visited the Kibera slum of Nairobi, Kenya. He wanted to understand the ethnic violence he expected to face in uniform. Once there, Barcott befriended a widowed nurse and a community organizer, and together they built Carolina for Kibera (CFK), an NGO that breaks cycles of violence and develops young leaders in one of Africa's largest slums. Barcott continued his work with CFK while leading Marines in Iraq, Bosnia, and the Horn of Africa. He waged peace while fighting war, and struggled to compartmentalize the experiences and resist darker forces. It Happened on the Way to War is a true story about the powerful melding of military and humanitarian service. It's a story of what America's role in the world could be. Praise for It Happened on the Way to War: Riveting. A beautifully written memoir that reads like a novel and reveals fundamental truths about good, evil, and our common humanity.-Ishmael Beah, author of A Long Way Gone A tremendous story of the power of friendship, love, and the transforming grace of God. -Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, Novel Peace Prize laureate.…
