Description
Richard Peters is a fighter. As one of the original members of SEAL Team Six, he has led perilous missions across the globe, from Vietnam to Panama, and later as a civilian contractor in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya. Arrested as a spy when the Libyan people revolted against longtime dictator Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, Peters was imprisoned. As he awaited public execution, Peters found that his faith grew and empowered his fellow prisoners, including journalist James Foley, who became Peters's good friend.
Man of War is his incredible true story. Readers of military memoir and anyone who loves edge-of-your-seat adventure will thrill to follow Peters into some of the most volatile places on earth. They'll be amazed at Peters' narrow escapes, including his release from that Libyan prison several months before the American ambassador and three others were murdered. And they'll marvel at God's faithfulness, even in the darkest of places--including the human heart.
