Title: A Legendary Family
Product review: A painfully honest family story. Much of this book focuses on John McCain's father and grandfather, both of whom had significantly more successful military careers.McCain clearly admired his father/grandfather and wanted to follow in their footsteps. He seemed to be cut from a different cloth and fate delivered a very different set of life experiences. The stories regarding his treatment in North Vietnam showed him to be a person who could endure great hardship and still retain his faith and sanity.Reading this book gave me a much better understanding of him as a candidate and politician. The traits which allowed him to survive as a POW and a career in the military do not always serve him well in politics. I have no doubt that he is an honorable man who puts love of country above all else. Unfortunately, those same traits are what keep him from being a successful national candidate.Highly recommended.
