"Army Wives" is Not Just a Lifetime TV Show
(PRWEB) June 9, 2008 -- "Army Wives," the most successful drama series in Lifetime Television history, won hearts with its fictional portrayal of military families. For those intrigued with the close sisterhood of salutes, send-offs, and solo parenting, a new book offers personal perspectives on life as a service spouse. In "Household Baggage Handlers: Stories From the Hearts and Lives of Military Wives" (Wyatt-MacKenzie, May 2008), 47 women share their unvarnished vignettes, some sad, some comic, all heartwrenchingly true.
Editor Marna Krajeski, author of "Household Baggage: The Moving Life of a Soldier's Wife" (Wyatt-MacKenzie, May 2006), now in its second printing, was inspired to compile the collection after military wives across the country emailed their anecdotes to her. "I read these fascinating stories about the courage, stamina, wit, and wisdom of this remarkable group, and I was convinced they belonged in an anthology for others to enjoy and pass along," says Krajeski.
The twelve chapters of the book reveal what it's like to relocate a family overseas or across the country, care for a newborn alone while a husband is deployed, and live with the constant fear of a uniformed officer arriving at the front door bearing grim news. "Household Baggage Handlers" contains stories about life with the Army, Air Force, Marines, and Navy, from World War II to the present.
"Anyone reading this collection will gain an appreciation of the challenges military wives overcome every day," adds Krajeski. "It's a real eye opener."
