Worth the Fighting For: The Education of an American Maverick, and the Heroes Who Inspired Him

22 reviews
John McCain, Mark Salter

Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2003

Great historical, political, autobiographical and insightful read
When the 2008 GOP primary began, I was not a fan of McCain. I didn't dislike him. I just had a different preference. I'd always wanted to read Faith of My Fathers and read that one first. It took the reader from McCain's grandfather, to his father, and finally to McCain himself and his experience in Vietnam, where it concluded with his homecoming. This book picks up with John McCain's ...

Second, Richard Panchyk provides excerpts from actual wartime letters written to and by troops on both sides along with personal anecdotes from people who lived through the war. Finally, ...

Call of Duty: My Life Before, During and After the Band of Brothers

22 reviews
Lt. Lynn "Buck" Compton, Marcus Brotherton

Berkley Hardcover, 2008

Amazing life story of an amazing man
This book is more than a re-telling of Band of Brothers. But I really only appreciated that fact when I had finished reading the book. I have read most of the books written by or about members of Easy Company. I do the same thing every time; that is, to approach it with the idea that the material will expand the information in the Ambrose book, and bring even more details of the fighting. ...

Barack Obama vs. John McCain - Side by Side Senate Voting Record for Easy Comparison

4 reviews
Barack Obama, John McCain

Arc Manor, 2008

Obama Vs. McCain Voting Record
This was a fantastic comparison of the 2 senators voting records, with many surprising votes by McCain when compared to his campaign messaging. The one improvement I would have liked to see is more detail in the Vote Question section for each motion/amendment/bill.

Why Courage Matters: The Way to a Braver Life

48 reviews
John McCain, Marshall Salter

Ballantine Books, 2008

Courage to whip his supporters into patriotic frenzy
Like everyone else who talks about him, I have the greatest respect for what McCain did for his country 40 years ago. He is a man of great honor and bravery and blah-di-blah-di-blah. He, and his equally bold running mate Sara Palin have shown great courage recently during their campaign rallies when they bravely spew their completely false yet necessary statements about Obama's un-American and ...

Broadway, 2008

Gandt & White "Ace" It....
Another naval aviation book success from the computers of Bob Gandt and Bill White, a non-fiction one this time that already has been number 518 on the best sales list of Amazon.com after only three days on the street. This book was also selected by the Military Book Club as a primary selection in the near future. Despite the more than tepid review of "Publisher's Weekly" quoted above, ...

John McCain's Autobiography
In this presidential election year of 2008, it is imperative to read books written by the candidates in order to assess strengths and weaknesses. I have lived thru more than 16 presidential elections, heard promises that were never kept, suffered thru wars, recessions, triumphs and terrorist attacks on our soil. Before I vote as an independent, I intend to do a lot of research. I have read ...

John McCain, Mark Salter

Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2007

Suprisingly Interesting
Long car ride. 4 kids. Hey, let's torture the kids with John McCain... we packed along the iPods and gadgets, and figured WE (the adults) would listen to this while the kids ignored it. We popped in the first disc of the audio CD. After about 5 minutes, I thought, "there's just no way I can listen to this through the whole state of Utah!" McCain's voice is pretty monotone. Enough to put ...

Jonathan Shay

Scribner, 2003

Finally Understand
After reading it and puzzling over it for a couple of months I can honestly say I understand what I have put my wife through for the last 36 and one-half years. Every combat veteran needs to read this book. Just for the understanding if nothing else. Oh, if it is not too late, get some help too.

Glory Denied: The Saga of Jim Thompson, America's Longest-Held Prisoner of War

Tom Philpott

W. W. Norton & Company, 2001

An incredible read
The story of Col Thompson is truly remarkable. The thing that grabbed me the most was his constant struggle to regain the life he knew before he was captured. It made me think what would life be like if I spent 9 years away from everything I currently know. Think about it take the last 9 years out of your life and everything that was created, or music changes, clothing changes. Truly and ...

Maj. Chuck Larson is to be commended for compiling the heart-wrenching, uplifting real-life accounts of our nation's heroes.

You will be amazed at the self-sacrifices, the heroism, the humility and the optimism. Forget what the media is ...
