Advances in battlefield medicine have left more severely wounded soldiers
surviving current conflicts than at any time in American history.

This magnificent collection features over one hundred portraits of wounded American soldiers, all painted from life by award-winning artist, Sally Lincoln.

Within these pages, the legacy of war is presented in its most human terms.

What we hear about the book:
“Sally Lincoln’s bold and amazing portraits of our veterans reveal the aftermath and impact of their bravery and selfl ess endurance. With her strong and immediate style, she compels the viewer to take stock of that sacrifi ce, to respect it and honor it. Wonderful contemporary art!”
Mark Daily, Art Students League of Denver Instructor

“Sally’s paintings are beautiful portraits, but are also poignant windows into the souls of these soldiers. They are painted directly, without artifi ce and with great empathy for the subjects. This collection is a powerful tribute to our veterans as well as a signifi cant artistic achievement.”
Bill Starke, Sculptor
