€œA rollicking good ride.€ €"Jay Winik, bestselling author of April 1865
It€s the middle of a heat wave, and Charlie Schroeder is dressed in heavy clothing and struggling to row a replica eighteenth-century bateau down the St. Lawrence River. Why? Months earlier, Schroeder realized he knew almost nothing about history. But he wanted to learn, so the actor€"best known for his role as Mr. Pussy on Sex and the City€"spent a year reenacting it.
Man of War is Schroeder€s hilarious account of the time he spent chasing Celts in Arkansas, raiding a Viet Cong village in Virginia, and flirting with frostbite en route to €œStalingrad€ in Colorado. Along the way, he illuminates just how much the past can teach us about the present.
