Reviews

The highly charged emotional nature of this topic makes it challenging to present in a sensitive and effective way. The choice of two approaches in this book – a personal perspective, and a more objective, factual one – help to balance the grief and loss that underlies the topic. It works.

CM Magazine

Highway of Heroes is a stunning tribute and you can tell it was created with the utmost respect and reverence this topic deserves. One read of “A Note from the Author” section at the back and you’ll know exactly what I mean.
