From her charismatic father, Danielle Trussoni learned how to rock and roll, outrun the police, and never shy away from a fight. Spending hour upon hour trailing him around the bars and honky-tonks of La Crosse, Wisconsin, young Danielle grew up fascinated by stories of her dad's adventures as a tunnel rat in Vietnam, where he'd risked his life crawling head first into narrow passageways to search for American POWs.
A vivid and poignant portrait of a daughter's relationship with her father, this funny, heartbreaking, and beautifully written memoir, Falling Through the Earth, "makes plain that the horror of war doesn't end in the trenches" ( Vanity Fair).

"A richly textured history of her father's war and the long-term effects his service had on her and her family . . . an important and harrowing story." -Anthony Swofford, New York Times -bestselling author of Jarhead
"Tussoni's memories of a hard-knocks childhood are vivid and spiky, and she relays her father's war stories with convincing bravado." - Boston Sunday Globe
