Faith of My Fathers

John McCain is one of the most admired leaders in the U.S. government, but his deeply felt memoir of family & war is not a political one & ends before his election to Congress. He learned about life & honor from his grandfather & father, both 4-star admirals in the U.S. Navy. This is a memoir about their lives, their heroism, & the ways their sons are shaped & enriched by their fathers. McCain Jr.'s was a naval aviator, & he was shot down over Hanoi in 1967 & seriously injured. McCain was tortured, held in solitary confinement, & imprisoned for 5-1/2 years. Here he tells what he learned from his grandfather & father, & how their example enable him to survive those hard years. Photos.McCain, John is the author of 'Faith of My Fathers', published 2006 under ISBN 9781422352502 and ISBN 1422352501.
