A Stunning Account of a Remarkable Young Man's Herioc Life and Death

A stunning account of a remarkable young man’s heroic life and death, from the bestselling author of Into the Wild, Into Thin Air, and Under the Banner of Heaven. Jon Krakauer’s Where Men Win Glory tells the odyssey of Pat Tillman.

Pat Tillman walked away from a multimillion-dollar NFL contract to join the Army and became an icon of post-9/11 patriotism. When he was killed in Afghanistan two years later, a legend was born. But the real Pat Tillman was much more remarkable, and considerably more complicated than the public knew…

“Nuanced, thorough, and chilling.”
—The Oregonian

“Riveting…. Krakauer’s gripping book about this extraordinary man who lived passionately and died unnecessarily sets the record straight.”
—USA Today
