Reviews
"The obscure secrets that Beyer reveals are fascinating in all the ways that history books generally aren't--quirky and entertaining without being drawn out....A quick read that you'll be drawing into conversation forever." -- The Army Times
"Many strange tales...Readers wary of warrior worship will find several stories to warm their hearts..." -- Charlotte Observer
