In March 2003, Major General Freddie Valenzuela presided over the funeral of the first casualty of the Iraq War. The young soldier was not yet a citizen of the United States, and General Valenzuela wondered what motivated him and many others like him to make the ultimate sacrifice for their country. No Greater Love answers this question and many more concerning the dedication of our servicemen and women, specifically Hispanic soldiers, in the U.S. military.

MAJOR GENERAL FREDDIE VALENZUELA served thirty-three years in the U.S. Army and was highly decorated for heroism and valor. He served all over the world in three corps and six divisions and commanded in the Cold War and Gulf War eras. He created an educational foundation for at-risk children and families of soldiers killed in combat and was named one of the most influential Hispanic Americans in the U.S. by Hispanic Business magazine.
JASON LEMONS, J.D. holds degrees in English, professional writing, and law. He currently practices law in Dallas, Texas, and consults for the Center for Terrorism Law at St. Mary's University.
From the Revolutionary War to the War on Terror, Hispanic Americans have made enormous sacrifices to protect our freedoms, and I am grateful for their service. In No Greater Love, General Valenzuela highlights the service and dedication of these brave Americans in our military. -- United States Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison - Texas
In this poignant work, Freddie Valenzuela uses his thirty-three years of military service as a canvas on which he paints...the moving story of a Hispanic American in service to his nation...I commend it to you as a wonderful way to explore the nature of service and the meaning of patriotism. -- United States Senator John S. McCain - Arizona
