Descriere & specificații

"This book is a gift, and not only to Jordan." -USA Today In 2005, First Sergeant Charles Monroe King began to write what would become a two-hundred-page journal for his son in case he did not make it home from the war in Iraq. He was killed by a roadside bomb on October 14, 2006. His son, Jordan, was seven months old. A Journal for Jordan is a mother's letter to her son about the father he lost before he could even speak-including a fiercely honest account of her search for answers about Charles's death. It is also a father's advice and prayers for the son he will never know. Finally, this is the story of Dana and Charles together-two seemingly mismatched souls who loved each other deeply and lost each other too soon. About the Author DANA CANEDY is a senior editor at the New York Times , where she has been a journalist for twelve years. In 2001, she was part of a team that won a Pulitzer Prize for national reporting for "How Race Is Lived in America," a series on race relations in the United States.
