Fellow patriots, countrymen, and avid readers,

Since the advent of language, mankind has told stories.  While everyone likes a good story, there are few stories more compelling, more thought-provoking, more awe-inspiring, and more life-changing than true stories.  Now, modern stories of sacrifice, courage, strength, self-discipline, and honor have been brought together in one dynamic book--
Modern Day Heroes
®: In Defense of America.

HEROES TO BE PROUD OF!!!

Many of us grew up hearing our grandparents tell tales of simpler times, times where folk banded together in common purpose, times where individuals sacrificed for the good of the community.  Many of these tales are recounted in
Modern Day Heroes
®: In Defense of America.

TALES OF SACRIFICE 

Men who have willingly gone to war.  Americans who have nobly given everything in defense of their country.  Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, police, fire, and others have their real life stories chronicled in
Modern Day Heroes
®: In Defense of America.

STORIES THAT SHALL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!!

In times like these, with war in various parts of the globe, economic difficulties for some, and general uncertainty in the air, it is easy for people to lose heart and focus.  It is also easy for people to think that they are unique in their sufferings, unique in their uncertainty, unique in their underlying fears.  However, stories from our own country’s past demonstrate that tough times are not unique to those of us today.  The difficulties we now face are not insurmountable.  The things that we fear can be conquered.  American heroes have risen to the challenge in the past, they continue to rise today, and they will rise in times of need in the futureModern Day Heroes®: In Defense of America tells these stories!

FROM THE MOUTHS OF PEOPLE WHO WERE THERE AND THOSE WHO LEAD OUR NATION

Modern Day Heroes®: In Defense of America is not just an ordinary compendium of stories.  It is a tribute to those who have sacrificed for the good of America.  It is unique in its scope and breadth.  Stories of American heroes are not just compiled for the telling, they are told by voices of those who served along with the men or by voices at the highest level of government service. 

No book has this many contributors from the highest levels of government service.
