Review Quotes

"His story is utterly amazing, and so too is this book. We are in his sons debt for permitting us to read it."--Jonathan Yardley, Washington Post Book World

"The tale he's left us has the feel of that moment when America was desperate for heroes, and reading it now is as much a trip back in time as it is a journey across the dark Sulu Sea."--New York Times Book Review

"This incredible journey is truly a remarkable account of the guts and patriotism of a genuine World War II hero."--H. Norman Schwarzkopf, General, U.S. Army, Retired
