Summary: Best Book On Leadership I've Ever Read
Comment: Finally, a book on leadership based on truth and real life experience! If you read business books and are tired of MBA speak, pick this up and learn what it really takes to persevere, to challenge ones self and most importantly -- to set an example. It is no wonder that the Army has produced some of the greatest leaders in history -- they are learning this stuff while most of us are still deciding which happy hour to hit.
I also like the way the book was organized. You learn first hand what it takes to succeed in a seemingly impossible set of physical, mental and emotional challenges. And you hear it directly from the Rangers themselves. The author then guides and offers advice on how to apply these same basic tenets to all aspects of your life.
I had no prior knowledge of the military or Rangers specifically. This book is also excellent for anyone contemplating joining special forces within the Armed Forces. The next time I see a soldier with a Ranger tab, I'll know that he put his heart, soul and mind on the line for 61 days and a better persepctive on what it took for him to survive.
I love Barber's No-Excuse method of leadership -- he's the kind of boss I'd enjoy working for.

Summary: This book has it all!
Comment: I just absolutely loved the way this book read.
Barber puts the reader at ground level, and drives home leadership principles through impactful, first person anecdotes.
Each chapter focuses on one Ranger School graduate and highlights one of many leadership traits within each story. This book is so inspiring and gives you strength to keep pursuing your dream, no matter how far away it is.

Summary: A book that Defines Leadership
Comment: Brace Barber has written a book that not only defines the necessary characteritics of what it takes to be a leader, he does so in a manner that takes the reader inside the world of the Ranger experience. Leaders follow, push themselves; lead by example; depend on others; have teh ability to endure and overcome and have vision. I found personal inspiration from the individual's in the book relating their experiences. You will, too!
