Sgt. Vegan (aka Bill Muir) is a classic Renaissance man. He'll cover your back on the battlefield, in a medical crisis, at the gym, or in the kitchen. He knows firsthand what it's like to maintain a plant-based diet under the most grueling circumstances (Army boot camp, Ranger training, deployment to Afghanistan!) and not only survive but also thrive, vegan strong. This ironman isn't just a tough guy, though. He has professional vegan culinary training, which is a natural extension of his warm, gentle heart. There's no one better than Sgt. Vegan to train your body and motivate your mind for a life of health, fitness, compassion, and good eating. --Jo Stepaniak, MSEd, author of Low-FODMAP and Vegan, The Ultimate Uncheese Cookbook, Vegan Vittles, and others.
