Where Men Win Glory: The Odyssey of Pat Tillman by Jon Krakauer
Pat Tillman lived, and ultimately died, by a strong set of beliefs and ideals. He gave up a multi-million dollar football career to enlist in the Army after 9/11 because he felt a moral obligation to serve his country. He was killed by friendly fire while serving a tour of duty in Afghanistan. Krakauer builds Tillman’s compelling and heartbreaking story based on the history of the region, the events leading up to the attacks in 2001, Tillman’s diaries, Army records and interviews with people involved. Highly recommended.
