About this book
Here is the story of Norman Schwarzkopf's boyhood years in Lawrenceville, New Jersey, during World War II, the child of a military man who organized the state police, led the Lindbergh kidnapping investigation, and taught his only son his first lessons in leadership; a portrait of a unique adolescence spent in the Middle East and Europe that would later prove invaluable to his understanding of the Gulf.
