Woven in War, a quintessential Canadian military story, is also a unique human-interest memoir with wide appeal that follows the vastly different paths of two Canadian medics. One fights a personal battle with addiction, negative self-image, guilt, and post-traumatic stress. The other is deployed to Afghanistan to face the effects of global conflict. This true story filled with unbelievable serendipity gives the reader a glimpse into the veteran experience, whether on the battlefield afar or here at home.

Written as a tribute to fallen Canadian medic Colin Wilmot, this book chronicles the path of an Edmonton Oilers T-shirt on its most unusual journey during a thirteen-year span-the threads of which bring two unlikely people together.

Alternating between author Matthew Heneghan's post-military experience and Philip Hunter's charming yet raw letters to his wife while he was in Afghanistan, this saga takes the reader along for an inside look at the parallel rails of internal and external conflict.

This is not just a medic's story, this is Canada's story, woven in spirit, camaraderie, and influence that outlasts lifetimes.
