"When they saw a Hell's Angels Nomad walk into their bar they immediately glared at me like I was going to be a dead man very soon. I knew, of course, what was up and I would've turned around and walked out had that been an option, but they would've chased me down anyway, so, I just threw up my arms and yelled, 'Hi, guys!'" - From the book.

"I'd trust Jake Sawyer more than I would any police officer or military man I've ever served with!"

-Ron Damon, highly decorated police lieutenant and early Navy Seal.

"Jake was one of the most influential people in my life, no question. When I heard that his life story was being written, I was absolutely thrilled."

-Steve Sawtelle, a very successful Wall Street financier and celebrated Green Beret who Jake trained at Martin's Health Club.
