  Abstract:  The book recounts the lifeline story of U.S. Senator John S. McCain (R, AZ) and of his two most prominent forbears and namesakes, emphasis being put not inasmuch on sheer biographical (and, of course) autobiographical details, which are present solely to the extent of fitting the characters into the context, but on those elements defining the image of the Navy hero, an inspirational model for military cadres and civilians alike.
