　　A raw, heartfelt story of how a man of valor lost his bearings

and eventually found the courage to share his story. Shadow of the

Sword leaves you hoping and cheering for the happy ending that

Workman deserves.—Bing West, author of The Strongest Tribe

"In writing this moving and incredibly honest book, Workman shows

at least as much courage as he did in Fallujah. His story gives

hope to anyone who struggles that they, too, can overcome if they

just keep fighting—one day at a time, one battle at a time, one

victory at a time."—Donovan Campbell, author of Joker One

书籍介绍

Awarded the Navy Cross for gallantry under fire, Staff Sergeant Jeremiah Workman is one of the Marine Corps’ best-known contemporary combat veterans. In this searing and inspiring memoir, he tells an unforgettable story of his service overseas–and of the emotional wars that continue to rage long after our fighting men come home.

Raised in a tiny blue-collar town in Ohio, Jeremiah Workman was a handsome and athletic high achiever. Having excelled on the sporting field, he believed that the Marine Corps would be the perfect way to harness his physical and professional drives.

In the Iraqi city of Fallujah in December 2004, Workman faced the challenge that would change his life. He and his platoon were searching for hidden caches of weapons and mopping up die-hard insurgent cells when they came upon a building in which a team of fanatical insurgents had their fellow Marines trapped. Leading repeated assaults on that building, Workman killed more than twenty of the enemy in a ferocious firefight that left three of his own men dead.

But Workman’s most difficult fight lay ahead of him–in the battlefield of his mind. Burying his guilt about the deaths of his men, he returned stateside, where he was decorated for valor and then found himself assigned to the Marine base at Parris Island as a “Kill Hat”: a drill instructor with the least seniority and the most brutal responsibilities. He was instructed, only half in jest, to push his untested recruits to the brink of suicide. Haunted by the thought that he had failed his men overseas, Workman cracked, suffering a psychological breakdown in front of the men he was charged with leading and preparing for war.

In Shadow of the Sword , a memoir that brilliantly captures both wartime courage and its lifelong consequences, Workman candidly reveals the ordeal of post-traumatic stress disorder: the therapy and drug treatments that deadened his mind even as they eased his pain, the overwhelming stress that pushed his marriage to the brink, and the confrontations with anger and self-blame that he had internalized for years.

Having fought through the worst of his trials–and now the father of a young son–Workman has found not perfection or a panacea but a way to accommodate his traumas and to move forward toward hope, love, and reconciliation.

  沒點希臘神話基礎別去挑戰，所謂基礎，請您先讀過荷馬和赫西俄德的作品再來。前5世紀開始往後的作品的基礎上讓這本書更適合給自幹五找事做。讀過幾本市面上流行的《希臘神話故事》之類的東西就覺得自己有基礎的麥玩。

  想比较流畅的通读原典的话可能还是看这个版本会好一点，但并不代表里头内容非常新鲜，因为在当代介绍当中已经比较展开，特别是周汝昌老先生的《永字八法》

• 史笔一种

  作者：kwen 发布时间：2016-09-01 21:00:39

  开篇《那个逃席的人》，似有“向使当初身便死，一生真伪复谁知”之乐天老人之诗意，可谓近于史笔矣。

  何谓史笔？姑不论子长“史家之绝唱，无韵之离骚”，盖后世既少于“文章华国，诗书传家”，则其比拟圣意，虽一二之善言，亦可以教后世，而不可以苛求。

  予尝说言，以大人之境，观柳永《雨霖铃》暨白乐天《琵琶行》，安知非华严之境？如是观《野史记》，庶几有所得也。

  而科举两篇，夹杂于《政事本纪》之中，未尝不有劝喻之心也；且其所论，确有独到之处而契合于现实。

  惟所深叹者，其乡野无政，而奸猾所居，则大厦之基，何得立乎？暨乡民之无所归，则天下之何以安处乎？吾不知也。

  经济当道，城镇为要，而失之于乡野，则法外之地，民其无所附矣；又不可以法治，人情所在，难能理断。学子无归，工者去农，无依无取而斗转星移，农民进城，其将何以止？

  强势之政府，强盗之工商，处寅吃卯粮之时，剥夺弱者，以为自恣，孰能止之？

• 最好的广告

  作者：蜂窝煤 发布时间：2008-04-08 11:50:21

  早几天前就拿到书了，但迟迟不好做广告，因为网上书店一直没有上架，如果有朋友想买，还真不好推荐去哪里买好。今天重庆正式上市了，据说新华书店有卖，新华书店，呵呵，比80年代还遥远，那就麻烦各位朋友多跑几步了。

  这本书的面世，经历了两个年头，三次波折，要感谢的朋友很多，没有你们的支持和鼓励，我这个几乎被加班燃烧殆尽的蜂窝煤，可能在第20幅就停了，绝难再有火力去挑战这80多张画80多篇文字。

  特别要谢谢九月九文化传播的王大爷，你是我见过的最“精蹦的鲫壳儿”！要不是你超人的信心和精力，其间稍有一点泄劲和动摇，这本书就再没有出版的机会了。前后两次跑回重庆，交流，修改，校对，其实一次就够了，呵呵，第二次真是很想见见你，看看你活蹦乱跳的样子，跟你公司的才子美女们一起，享受享受黄角坪那独有的活跃浪漫的气氛。

  说回到书上，谢谢美编同学，小小插图让版面更丰富了，加分不少。最后的重庆话等级考卷，也是一个好创意。但是，封面被改成现在的样子，有点遗憾，原因是出版社说，不能太像是教科书，苦笑。现在封面这张图是插图中的一张，当时马上就要开机印刷了，我也没时间再改，只好认了，将就吧。后来，我再一细想，原来，王大爷挑选这一幅插图做封面是有深意的——这张插图对应的词条是“扎起”啊！哈哈！今天看到大渝网上的评论回复，最让我感动的，就是有这么多老乡老兄弟伙们给我“扎起”啊！哈哈，这个封面简直就是最好的广告嘛！其他不多说了，谢谢各位了！

  今天下午，我把一本书，放在了爸爸妈妈手里。我说，里面有你们的故事。妈妈迫不及待地翻看着了十几页，又哭，又笑。
