Personally, I find the title totally appropriate for dealing with situations of 'PTSD' of the non-combat variety. I can lose sleep with the author, worrying about the dead body-count, yet rejoice in his ability to fight-back the very next paragraph. This book is excellent for anyone as it's written like a tale polished from countless retellings, like a story passed on through the centuries it's bigger for how quickly it passes. Actually it's rather like reading 'Twas the Night Before Christmas.We'll aways wish we can have Rwanda back, but I'm glad now that this was history not fiction; it's a knotty, tattered thread but it's a link to our shared humanity's past; the collective suicide that was colonialism, that only a Canadian could understand. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Priceless PTSD Memoir *by I***A on Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2016* This is an extremely wonderful book. It's an honour to be the first to review it. Romeo Dallaire talks about the effect of PTSD in his life. He uses his experiences as a military commander to spread awareness about this disorder, advocates for better quality of life for Canadian troops & child soldiers. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. The book is highly informative and interesting and everything flows so smoothly. It's compelling. I got to learn some new things about him, some military information, things regarding Canada and so much more. I love that it's very inspiring, informative, interesting, honest, and, in a nutshell, amazing. Reading this book, you really get a sense of what it's like to have PTSD. As someone with this disorder, I could relate to some of his symptoms. But his is more severe than mine. I am glad that he is getting some help. It's an excellent book. Also, by reading this book, I have a better understanding of his missions, what veterans go through, and he has lived a very extraordinary life. I'm looking forward to reading his next book. I highly recommend it to all. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great insight into PTSD *by P***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2019* I wish I had read this book when it was first published. A courageous and personal account of his own battle with PTSD. A wake up call to the world about the atrocities of genocide, and the adverse effects on the soldiers called upon to deal with impossible situations. Unfortunately, similar atrocities have always, and continue to occur around the world, but great humanitarians like General Dallaire help tip the balance in the right direction. He eloquently makes the point that soldiers with PTSD need proper support and appropriate treatment, not condemnation . Everyone should read this book. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/155836522-waiting-for-first-light-my-ongoing-battle-with-ptsd](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/155836522-waiting-for-first-light-my-ongoing-battle-with-ptsd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
