"In the face of huge odds, in a foreign land, a Navy SEAL survived to tell his story. It's inspirational, dynamic, and we should all feel proud to be a part of his Team. Thank goodness America's Marcus Luttrells are always out there." - David Scott, Commander, Apollo 15. "An astonishing survival tale." - Fritz Lanham, Houston Chronicle. "Every bit as thrilling as Mark Bowden's 1999 bestseller Black Hawk Down and, unexpectedly, quite moving." - Edward Nawotka, Dallas Morning News. "One of the most gripping and heartbreaking descriptions of heroism in combat to come out of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.An astonishing survival tale." - Fritz Lanham, Houston Chronicle. "On a clear night in late June 2005, four U.S. Navy SEALs left their base in northern Afghanistan for mountainous Pakistani border. Their mission: to capture or kill a notorious al Qaeda leader. Less than twenty-four hours later, only one of those Navy SEALs remained alive. This is the story of fire team leader Marcus Luttrell and the desperate battle in the mountains that led, ultimately, to the largest loss of life in Navy SEAL history. But it is also, more than anything, the story of the men who fought ferociously beside him until he was the last one left. Luttrell recalls their valiant efforts in one of the most powerful narratives ever written about modern warfare - a stirring tribute to his teammates, who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country." - from the inner front jacket flap. "A true story that showcases both American heroism and Afghani humanity." - Dennis Drabelle, Washington Post Book World. "One of the more remarkable accounts to emerge from the war in Afghanistan." - Patrick Ian Clark, Cape Cod Times. "A heroic and riveting narrative of endurance against impossible odds.A harrowing tale of survival in the mountains of Afghanistan, surrounded by hundreds of Taliban rebels." - Brad Meyer, The Courier (Texas). Hayes, Keith (jacket design); Campbell, Kelly (author photograph); Sugar, Jim (jacket photograph of Navy SEALs' emblem) (illustratore). Signed by Author(s).
