Random House]

In 1999, McCain wrote his best-selling memoir, ''Faith of My Fathers.'' That book ended in 1972, with McCain's release from imprisonment in Vietnam. This is the rest of his story, about his journey from the U.S. Navy to his run for the presidency, interwoven with portraits of the mavericks who have inspired him -- Ted Williams, Theodore Roosevelt, visionary aviation proponent Billy Mitchell, Marlon Brando in ''Viva Zapata!,'' &, most of all, Robert Jordan, Hemingway's protagonist in ''For Whom the Bell Tolls'' who showed McCain the ideals of heroism & sacrifice, stoicism & redemption, & why certain causes, despite the costs, are worth the fighting for. This is the story of McCain's causes, the people who made him do it, & the meaning he found. Photos.

John McCain is one of the most admired leaders in the U.S. government, but his deeply felt memoir of family & war is not a political one & ends before his election to Congress. He learned about life & honor from his grandfather & father, both 4-star admirals in the U.S. Navy. This is a memoir about their lives, their heroism, & the ways their sons are shaped & enriched by their fathers. McCain Jr.'s was a naval aviator, & he was shot down over Hanoi in 1967 & seriously injured. McCain was tortured, held in solitary confinement, & imprisoned for 5-1/2 years. Here he tells what he learned from his grandfather & father, & how their example enable him to survive those hard years. Photos.

A candid new political memoir from Senator John McCain--his most personal book in years--covering everything from 2008 up to the present. In a time when Washington, DC and the country is more polarized than it has been for decades, John McCain is the rare public figure who has earned the respect of people on both sides of the aisle. He is a model for bipartisanship and political integrity. In his forty years in politics McCain has never been afraid to buck trends or ruffle a few feathers. His words are more important today than ever. The Restless Wave begins in 2008 with McCain's presidential campaign and then follows the Senator during his time as a senior Republican lawmaker through the Obama administration, when the country was tested at home and abroad. McCain shares his experiences during the divisive 2016 election and his no-holds-barred opinions on the current developments coming out of Washington. He also discusses the vital challenges from abroad: Russia, NATO, the campaign to defeat ISIS, our ongoing operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, among others. Candid, pragmatic, and always fascinating, John McCain holds nothing back in his latest memoir.
