The Courage to Remember - PTSD - From Trauma to Triumph by Lester Tenney

How can you free yourself from the oppression of the past and the imprisonment of your mind? In "The Courage To Remember," Les Tenney describes how he personally overcame the despair of Post-Traumatic Stress resulting from torture, starvation, disease, imprisonment and slavery. One of the few remaining survivors of World War II's infamous Bataan Death March in the Philippines, and three-and-a-half years as a Prisoner of War and slave of the Japanese, Tenney writes a gripping firsthand account. More important, this book outlines how he dealt with and overcame the emotional trauma that followed for many years, outlining how he trained his mind to focus on the positive, set realistic goals, use each setback to propel him forward, and be a victim no more. This is an important book which offers hope to others who continue to suffer from trauma.
