An inspirational true story of a Marine who finds his calling empowering youth in one of the largest slums in Africa.
' The best book to land on my desk this year' Bobby Ghosh, Time
'A tremendous story of the power of friendship, love, and the transforming grace of God' Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, Nobel Peace Prize laureate
This is a book about two forms of service that may appear contradictory: war-fighting and peacemaking, military service and social entrepreneurship.
In 2001, Marine officer-in-training Rye Barcott cofounded a nongovernmental organization with two Kenyans in the Kibera slum of Nairobi. Their organization-Carolina for Kibera-grew to become a model of a global movement called participatory development, and Barcott continued volunteering with CFK while leading Marines in dangerous places.
It Happened on the Way to War is a true story of heartbreak, courage, and the impact that small groups of committed citizens can make in the world.
