This short biography tells the story of Dan Crenshaw, the retired Navy SEAL and U.S. Representative. Crenshaw became a national celebrity when he appeared on Saturday Night Live during his first run for Congress. Long before that appearance, though, he had distinguished himself by overcoming personal tragedy, completing the rigorous Navy SEALS training program, and surviving a deadly blast in Afghanistan. Find out how Crenshaw’s life and career developed and how the injury that blinded his right eye led him to become a rising star in the Republican Party.

Dan used to be a soldier, and although soldiering provides the backdrop to some of the book, what it is really about is love, life and death - and all the stuff that goes in between. It is about making decisions when under extreme pressure, about keeping calm, keeping going and keeping a smile on your face - well, most of the time, anyway. Specifically, it is about the two biggest challenges Dan faced and the way he tried to cope with them - taking on the Taliban in Afghanistan and losing his wife to cancer at a tragically young age.
