In Character is Destiny, McCain tells the stories of celebrated historical figures and lesser-known heroes whose values exemplify the best of the human spirit. He illustrates these qualities with moving stories of triumph against the odds, righteousness in the face of iniquity, hope in adversity, and sacrifices for a cause greater than self-interest. The tributes he pays here to men and women who have lived truthfully will stir the hearts of young and old alike, and help prepare us for the hard work of choosing our destiny.©2005 John McCain and Marshall Salter; (P)2005 Books on Tape Career Success Motivation & Self-Improvement Personal Development Personal Success Relationships Inspiring Imperialism Latin American Destiny Africa
