“You have to be a bit crazy to be a SEAL…Clint Emerson takes us on a roller-coaster ride through his career as he demonstrates the ‘the kind’ of craziness that’s required. Buckle your seat belt and be prepared…Clint doesn’t mince words or suffer fools kindly, and cares even less about being politically correct.”—H. Keith Melton, author of Ultimate Spy

“A riveting look inside the inner workings of the SEAL team culture. This is not your ordinary memoir—it’s a fast-paced and hilarious real-life glimpse into what career frogmen experience. A must-read, instant classic.” —Mike Ritland, former Navy SEAL and host of Mike Drop podcast

“Emerson’s book is a must-read. After rebellious years as a youth, he persevered to become a U.S. Navy SEAL. His journey reads like fiction, but it’s satisfying nonfiction narrative of a credible operator…Doing the gritty work of a SEAL in combat zones, Emerson refined the art and tradecraft of sensitive operations elsewhere in the Middle East—a euphemism for high-risk, quiet operational work—in the shadows.” —Chris Costa, Executive Director, International Spy Museum; Deputy Commander, SMU; former Special Assistant to the President for Counterterrorism
