Normally, I don't read anything military-related. I even questioned why I had decided to read this book in the first place, and then I started actually reading it. It is well-written and so fascinating. Williams did a great job of compiling inspiring stories of West Point grads throughout history who have personified the 12 virtues of West Point. This is an excellent treatment for a nation that needs reminding of the value of virtue! Each chapter focuses on a specific virtue and includes vignettes of soldiers - both past and present - who have lived up to that particular virtue. Williams also includes practical advice on cultivating virtue in our own lives. This book is inspiring and informative. I highly recommend this book.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher, Revell, for the purpose of writing a review, but all opinions are my own.
