From the first pages of the book, Gnashing of Teeth, I fell head first into the story of a young man's journey. Tim's departure from home for the unknown, the bravery and terror he faced at the front lines of the Korean War, the love he felt for a young woman, and finally his homecoming after the war. I was made to feel what Tim felt, fear, bravery, sadness and joy. I was moved to tears when after all Tim went through his homecoming was not what he expected. A must read for all those who served in the military and all those connected to someone who has.
