About the book:

All the Ruined Men is a book of linked short stories following a group of soldiers trying to adjust to civilian life after years of war. The cast of characters are young men who embraced what they thought was a war of just cause, who trained and fought and lived and died together, and who then returned to families, wives, children, civilian life, and an America that has lost its way.
