About This Book
In a culture of contempt, governing across party lines is the rarest form of leadership — and these ten veterans chose it anyway.
Rye Barcott, a U.S. Marine and co-founder of With Honor, profiles ten post-9/11 veterans — five Democrats, five Republicans — who carried the ethic of service from the battlefield into elected office. Mikie Sherrill, Mark Kelly, Dan Crenshaw, Wes Moore, Seth Moulton and others reveal the moral costs of bipartisan leadership: public attacks, private doubt and the constant risk of losing everything they've worked for.
Courage Can Save US is more than political biography. It's an examination of what courage actually looks like in an age of outrage — and a challenge to all of us to consider how it might strengthen our own lives.
