#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A vibrant collection of oil paintings and stories by President George W. Bush honoring the sacrifice and courage of Americas military veterans.With Forewords by former First Lady Laura Bush and General Peter Pace, 16th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.Growing out of President Bushs own outreach and the ongoing work of the George W. Bush Institute s Military Service Initiative, Portraits of Courage brings together sixtysix fullcolor portraits and a fourpanel mural painted by President Bush of members of the United States military who have served our nation with honor since 9/11and whom he has come to know personally.Our men and women in uniform have faced down enemies, liberated millions, and in doing so showed the true compassion of our nation. Often, they return home with injuriesboth visible and invisiblethat intensify the challenges of transitioning into civilian life. In addition to these burdens, research shows a civilianmilitary divide. Seventyone percent of Americans say they have little understanding of the issues facing veterans, and veterans agree: eightyfour percent say that the public has little awareness of the issues facing them and their families.Each painting in this meticulously produced hardcover volume is accompanied by the inspiring story of the veteran depicted, written by the President. Readers can see the faces of those who answered the nations call and learn from their bravery on the battlefield, their journeys to recovery, and the continued leadership and contributions they are making as civilians. It is President Bushs desire that these stories of courage and resilience will honor our men and women in uniform, highlight their family and caregivers who bear the burden of their sacrifice, and help Americans understand how we can support our veterans and empower them to succeed.President Bush will donate his net author proceeds from PORTRAITS OF COURAGEto the George W. Bush Presidential Center, a nonprofit organization whose Military Service Initiative works to ensure that post9/11 veterans and their families make successful transitions to civilian life with a focus on gaining meaningful employment and overcoming the invisible wounds of war.
