Allen Myles wakes up half the man he used to be in Walter Reed Army Hospital. With help from a doctor, a nurse and a team of scientists he discovers the means to rebuild a whole life. Along the way he learns what matters most and discovers the courage to work towards those goals. History lives in every man’s story.   The Arm and a Leg Farm bears witness to one man’s history which in turn becomes ours. The series of events which led the scientific community to pursue stem cell research, the story of Walter Reed Army Hospital and the legacy of bloodshed which stains the Mideast all converge to form a novel about courage and hope. Maggie is a young nurse intent on healing the wounds of soldiers. Bart is a psychiatrist healing wounds of his own by working with these soldiers. Ben Mitchell is a scientist planning to change the way medicine deals with healing. Allen Myles is the focus of this story which brings all these characters together on a course towards personal and professional evolution.  Hope from despair, joy from depression, life from death; these are the themes that ring through the story. Through the absolute hell of combat into the relative peace of loving relationships, Allen Myles travels a hard road to find home. He winds up in a place even better than where he started and in doing so gives us hope for our own trials and tribulations.
