The Luckiest Man: Life with John McCain

This is a profoundly moving book about an American of honor and valor, the likes of which we\’re likely not to see again for a lifetime. Regardless of one\’s politics there are many ideas here to ponder. For me the book also explains a number of contemporary political events – details and viewpoints that were very instructive to me. I cannot think of a book more worthwhile for today. The writing in this book is quite \”lovely\” for a book on a political figure. I found a couple accountings of Senate bills and votes quite dry. But those were important in creating the biography and kept probably as brief as possible. Overall, the writing has complex events moving along at a good pace. The author includes stories, anecdotes, and direct quotes that are often stunning and noteworthy. Many times these were so vivid they left me feeling as if I was right there in the office, on the floor, or engaging with McCain myself. The narrator seemed just perfect to me, This will be among my most favorite books and everyone I know will be getting a copy for Christmas. People around the world know John McCain and it is essential to know McCain\’s story well. And this author tells it so beautifully.

Loved this book and will always remember John McCain He was a true Hero in every way !! God bless his soul and his family

I learned a lot about John McCain and the principles by which he lead his life. I did not vote for him for president but through this book learned about a truly great American.

An opportunity to really understand and appreciate a remarkable life of an American hero, who paid the price of service in war, and learned what true valor is. John McCain embodied so much of the best of America: a deep sense of service to others, a solid foundation of values, a moral compass, courage, a great sense of humor. While I did not agree with every stance he took, I admire and honor how he stood true to his principles – our American principles. He made me proud to call him my senator.

I finished this book 4 days before the 2020 Presidential election. This book restored and revitalized my spirit of patriotism. What can I do to support and affirm the purpose of America? Please take the time to read this book!
