The 1st book of my quest is Jon Krakauer's Where Men Win Glory, the story of Pat Tillman. I will stipulate the following going in:
1. Pat Tillman is a hero. I don't look at his story as a way to disparage the US Army, or the war effort, or the Bush Presidency. I just look at his story as a hero's story. Period.
2. I am assuming that Jon Krakauer, who wrote Into the Wild, will not echo my sentiments and will attempt to do all of the above. So, I'm very skeptical.
3. To be fair, I didn't read Into the Wild, I only saw the movie. But the movie was a pinko-leftist anti-capitalist piece of crap, and it was boring. So, I'm very skeptical.
4. That being said, Scott Brick is reading it, and he is just phenomenal.
I'll report back on Monday with my review.
