A Refreshing Alternative June 6, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
American Heroes:...by Oliver North is an encouraging book to look at and read(the pictures are helpful in showing the story. It presents the positive experiences and contributions of many of our military, in spite of the dangers and losses. It describes the commitment of many of them to help the people of Iraq and Afganistan.It records the emphasis on compassion which is America at its best. If you are sick of the ordinary negative reporting,if you are dismayed by the fear-filled "cut and run" attitudes of some of our citizens, read the rest of the story presented to us in American Heroes:... YOu will be proud of our military and our country.

Finally someone is recognizing the real heroes in this world. The American people are so self-absorbed, they need to open their eyes and read this book. It's well written, reporting on all activities in layman's terms and packed with great photos of our servicemen.
Review of American Heroes June 7, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am not finished reading American Heroes as I am reading it with someone else and must wait until they have time to get together with me, but so far, we have both found it to be an honest and positive read. Oliver North is thoroughly knowledgeable of his topic and allows these true heroes to tell their story in an inspiring and reassuring way. I have much input from other military families who have also purchased the book; they are favorably impressed as well.

Excellent book! Col. North's experience with the brave young men and women of the American Military is amazing. I was truly touched and filled with pride at the same time. I'm thankful to live in a country where there are so many Heroes that are willing to put themselves in harms way for others. We owe our soldiers a debt of gratitude to which could never be paid.
God Bless them all!
A Must Read: American Heroes June 10, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Purchased as a gift for a Mom with two military sons, I found it a quick, compelling read. One of the most important books I have read in recent times. Real. Factual. Balanced. Documented and true. All those things we don't get in slanted media soundbytes. It is also emotional: heart-warming and heart-breaking, and creating within a sense of pride, respect, thanks, and hope.
