Publisher's note

An inspirational volume of moral and ethical lessons for parents to share with their children presents a collection of original profiles of individuals--including Winston Churchill, Nelson Mandella, Mark Twain, Elizabeth I, and Thomas More--who exemplify such qualities and essential values as diligence, forgiveness, humor, confidence, and honesty. Reprint. 150,000 first printing.

Annotation

Through inspiring, brief portraits of men and women whose exemplary actions reflected their character, John McCain reminds us that values are not merely abstract words--in times of crisis, they make a difference. CHARACTER IS DESTINY is organized under several large units, such as Honor, Purpose, Understanding, and Creativity; within each, McCain presents men and women who exemplify virtues such as honesty, self-control, or curiosity. The sketches include: Ferdinand Magellan, Sojourner Truth, Winston Churchill, Mother Teresa (the only entrant under Love/selflessness and compassion) and Pat Tillman, representing citizenship, who left a lucrative football career to fight in the Iraq War.

John McCain himself faced a time of trial, and gave his best. In his memoir, FAITH OF MY FATHERS, he told how, as a prisoner in North Vietnam, the lessons he learned as a youth and the example of others helped him through. CHARACTER IS DESTINY, written with Mark Salter, is intended for both adults and young people, who always need models.
