Booktrib's BookBites Diverse Reading: Perils of War; High-Stakes Thriller; Modern Women Ambitions; Guide To Seeking Harmony “When the Tempest Gathers” by Andrew Milburn  (NAPS)—This is no ordinary war memoir. These are the combat experiences of the first Marine to command a special operations task force, leading Marines through the streets of Mogadishu, Baghdad, Fallujah and Mosul and culminating in the fight against ISIS.  Very few personal accounts of war cover such a wide breadth of experience or with so discerning a perspective. Milburn tells his extraordinary story with self-effacing candor, describing openly his personal struggles with the isolation of command, post-combat trauma and family tragedy. He lets the reader experience what it’s like to lead those who fight America’s wars.?
