In this illuminating memoir, McChrystal frankly explores the major episodes and controversies of his career. He describes the many outstanding leaders he served with and the handful of bad leaders he learned not to emulate.
Stanley McChrystal retired in July 2010 as a four-star general in the U.S. Army. His last assignment was as the commander of the International Security Assistance Force and as the commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan. He is currently a senior fellow at Yale University's Jackson Institute for Global Affairs and cofounder of the McChrystal Group, a leadership consulting firm. He and his wife, Annie, live in Virginia.
A compelling account of his impressive career
*The Wall Street Journal*
This is a brilliant book about leadership wrapped inside a
fascinating personal narrative
*Walter Isaacson, author of Steve Jobs*
A clear, compelling, self-critical, and utterly unpretentious
memoir. I know of no better book on the nature of modern military
command
