The Warrior's Heart: Becoming a Man of Compassion and Courage by Eric GreitensMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I would highly recommend this book to 8th grade students, especially young men who just may need some inspiration in their lives. Eric Greiten's memoir doesn't just tell the story of becoming a Navy Seal, but also the story of how he was always willing to give of himself in service to others. The reader learns of his decision to go to school in China when he was 18, and then volunteering in Croatia, working with children, Rwanda, and then Bolivia. He learned a lot about the people in these countries, especially the children, and it made him realize a few important things about his life. He was ready to "fight the world's fight". The Navy Seal training chapters, and the war scenes are realistic and scary. From this memoir, I would say that Eric Greitens is an honorable man.
