Book Synopsis

Roux's War, the first book in Alacrity and Dispatch: The Chronicles of a Citizen-Soldier's Selfless Service, is a powerful and inspirational military memoir by Adam Rousselle Sr. This extraordinary autobiography traces Adam's transformation from an uncertain teenager to a decorated U.S. Army officer, set against pivotal moments in Cold War and Gulf War history.

For fans of American Sniper and other gripping military biographies, Roux's War delivers an unparalleled first-hand account of combat leadership, courage, and resilience. With unflinching candor, Adam recounts rigorous training, covert missions, and the stark realities of leading under fire. The memoir vividly captures high-stakes operations-from training Contras in the Honduran jungle and surviving ambushes to enduring betrayal within his own ranks-all while unveiling the emotional and physical toll of life on the frontlines.

Adam's leadership extends beyond the battlefield, from pioneering satellite timber inventory methods to safeguarding the U.S. energy grid by exposing systemic fraud in the utility industry. His mission culminates in founding a utility to export American electricity to Puerto Rico, Cuba, Haiti, and Central America.

Perfect for readers of military history, leadership books, and inspirational nonfiction, Roux's War combines the raw intensity of combat with visionary strategies for global change. Whether as a gripping nonfiction audiobook or a must-read military memoir, Adam Rousselle's story challenges readers to imagine a future where personal sacrifice drives transformative progress.

Review Quotes

Early Praise for The Mahogany Mafia:

I have known Adam Rousselle for decades as a fearless adventurer and brilliant business mind, but these books took me by surprise. Roux's War and The Mahogany Mafia are more than gripping thrillers-they are true stories from Adam's extraordinary life.

With unflinching honesty, Adam lays bare the pain of abandonment, the mental toll of war, and the brutal forces that shape destinies on a global scale. From deadly conflicts in the jungle to battles of loyalty and survival, these books reveal a world few can

imagine-and only Adam could have lived.

This is a raw, vivid, and unforgettable journey that blurs the line

between heroism and humanity.
