Honor and Betrayal cover

In this compelling and no-holds-barred account of three Navy SEALs' long road to justice, bestselling author Patrick Robinson reveals for the first time the entire story- from the night the SEALs stormed the al-Qaeda stronghold to the cut-and-thrust drama in the courtroom, where the fate of these American heroes hung in the balance.

"In this very important book, author Patrick Robinson shows how the culture of our military is imperiled by a high command that too frequently allows political correctness to trump honor and common sense... I was shocked--as a Navy veteran and defense lawyer."--Ray V. Hartwell III, Washington Times "If you are looking for a strong read, this is a no-brainer."--Sacramento Book Review "Should be required reading for all military personnel today."--American Spectator "Written in an even--keeled, reportorial style, the book tells a story...that certainly needs to be told... Guaranteed to raise eyebrows and spark debate."--Booklist Kirkus Reviews, 11/1/13 "Robinson ably discusses the intricacies of military justice...Captures the folly and resource drain of the Iraq War...Should appeal to conservative readers."
