About this title
This first oral history of living Medal of Honor winners evokes Flags of Our Fathers with stirring accounts of patriotic valor.
This New York Times best-selling account of battlefield courage celebrates the larger-than-life sacrifices of those awarded the nation's highest honor for valor in combat. Exclusive interviews with these twenty-four men―firsthand accounts of battlefield sacrifice from the greatest generation to Vietnam, along with before-and-after stories―form the core of this classic work. The recipients, as portrayed here, represent a cross-section as diverse as America itself―officers and enlisted men; African Americans, Hispanics, and Caucasians; men who went on to become famous (Daniel Inouye, James Stockdale, Bob Kerrey) and others who returned proudly to small towns. Beyond Glory, in the voices of these heroes, is a testament to the courage of the American nation.Larry Smith is the author of the New York Times bestsellers The Few and the Proud and Beyond Glory. The latter was adapted into a major Broadway play by Stephen Lang. Smith lives in South Norwalk, Connecticut.
Eddie Adams (1933-2004) was a Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer and photojournalist noted for portraits of celebrities and politicians and his coverage of thirteen wars.
