“From surviving the insanity of Hitler's holocaust to becoming commander of U.S. Special Forces, General Shachnow has accomplished the incredible. His is a story of hope, honor, heroism---one that should be read by everyone who enjoys freedom . . . or longs for it.” ―W. E. B. Griffin
“A gripping story of a warrior's survival and ultimate victory against all odds.” ―General Norman Schwarzkopf
“A gripping memoir of personal tragedy, perserverence, and triumph. Very few soldiers achieve the rank of Major General in the U.S. Army Special Forces. That a survivor of the Kovno concentration camp could do so says great things about the U.S. Army. . . . Major General Shachnow is a great American who serves as an example to every American that freedom does not come free.” ―Paul Wolfowitz
“Absolutely harrowing, as vivid and frightening as any Holocaust account I've read. His Special Forces experiences in Vietnam are also astonishing. General Shachnow had a vital role in shaping America's Special Forces into the tool it is today, at the precise time it is needed.” ―Larry Bond, author of the New York Times bestseller Red Phoenix
“An inspiring story wonderfully told, General Shachnow's memoir is as deeply moving as it is fascinating. His journey from a childhood amid the Holocaust to become one of the U.S. Army's most effective and visionary generals is at once a testament to his personal courage, to human resilience and to America's greatness.” ―Ralph Peters, author of Beyond Baghdad and Fighting For The Future
“What a book! Must reading! More riveting than any novel!” ―Thomas Fleming
“Sid Shachnow's life is an inspiring story for us all. . . . His powerful narrative is a riveting read, moving and informative.” ―Fred Franks, General U.S. Army (ret.), co-author with Tom Clancy of the New York Times #1 bestseller Into the Storm: A Study in Command
