Reviews
"The most engrossing book to appear in a long time from a presidential candidate....McCain's memoir is too good to be dismissed as simply another campaign book. It is a serious, utterly gripping account of faith, fathers, and the military." -Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Faith of My Fathers may also appeal to those who flocked to Saving Private Ryan and kept Brokaw's The Greatest Generation near the top of the bestseller lists." -Library Journal "Faith of My Fathers is the powerful story of a war hero. In it we learn much of what matters most. As prisoner (and later Senator) McCain instructs us: Glory is not an end in itself, but rather a reward for valor and faith. And the greatest freedom and human fulfillment comes from engaging in a noble enterprise larger than oneself. Faith of My Fathers teaches deep truths that are valid in any age but that warrant special attention in our own." -William J. Bennett                  "Faith of My Fathers is a gripping story of character and courage: character passed down from generation to generation by sterling examples of family bonds and devotion to duty; courage that ultimately comes from within, as John McCain learned in the brutual prison camps of North Vietnam. This is a sobering and glorious book that you won't be able to put down." -General Colin L. Powell (retired) "A candid, moving, and entertaining memoir...Impressive and inspiring, the story of a man touched and molded by fire, who loved and served his country in a time of great trouble, suffering, and challenge." -Kirkus Reviews From the Hardcover edition.

    An Informative Book about John McCain, his father, and grandfather.

    This book is an informative read on John Sidney McCain III and his father and grandfather. This book is, also, a very compelling read about the hardships that often entail being a POW, which John McCain III experienced. A word of Caution, however, this book would be rated PG-13 if it were a movie. The book includes vulgarities that is often common in military life. Also, John Sidney McCain (III) did "drop" the "F-Bomb" on his interrogators once in the book. Otherwise, the book is a very good read.

    A wonderful book. Compelling.

    I read the book and listened to the audio when it first came out. I watched The movie that is very true to the book. I loved the book. I bought the signed 1st Edition for my son as a present
