A deeply moving memoir by Labour MP and Defence Secretary Dan Jarvis

Dan Jarvis is an MP, but this is not a book about politics. This is a book about service and family - specifically his time serving in the elite Parachute Regiment, and the tragic death of his wife Caroline.
Long Way Home is about love, life and death - and all the stuff that goes in between. It is about making decisions when under extreme pressure, about keeping calm, keeping going and keeping a smile on your face - well, most of the time, anyway. Specifically, it is about the two biggest challenges Dan faced and the way he tried to cope with them - taking on the Taleban in Afghanistan, and losing his wife to cancer at a tragically young age.
For a long time Dan did not feel ready or able to talk about it, but ten years on, he now wants to tell the story.
From the mortal danger and nerve-tangling fear of night-fighting in Helmand province to the heartache of bereavement, this is a gripping and inspiring memoir by a man of courage and character.
