Marcus Williams brings the fire in First Words, Last Rights. The way he connects Valley Forge to modern First Amendment battles is nothing short of brilliant. I found myself nodding along to every chapter — veterans DO understand freedom differently because we signed a blank check for it. This belongs in every American's library, not just veterans.
