I really enjoyed reading this book. I thought it was enlightening and covered a really interesting subject in Modern Warfare. I like the pacing of the book a lot. Thank you for allowing me to read it early! I will be recommending this book to everyone.

Joshua Howe and Alexander Lemons' book Warbody is a masterpiece about what the human body goes through when it goes into war. It is an impressive piece of writing on multiple levels, and I recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone who may not have a full understanding of this most sensitive of subject matters. Truly amazing!

Is the unlikely friendship between an environmental historian and a chronically ill US Marine. The book dives into not only Alexander Lemons time in the Marine Corps but his time as student and trying to figure out why he’s ill. The book lays out the ways serving in the Marine lead to lead poisoning in Alex’s body as well as the other environmental factors. And what I learned in this one doesn’t surprise me considering Marines were being poisoned at Camp Lejeune for decades. With Lasting effects.

Wow. This book was eye opening. There’s always conversation about the mental and psychological effects of war, but rarely do we look at the health effects of our nation’s greatest heroes.
Incredibly detailed and very explanatory.

I found the mix of anecdotes and personal experiences with scientific literature well done. It did give me a lot of personal anxiety about myself. Having served in similar areas to Lemons. Even working with marine snipers during similar time frames. I’ve not had anywhere near the issues lemons had but it connected some dots to issues I did.

Helpful, informative, endearing and little bit nostalgic.
