Author Information

After a twenty-five-year military career and 110 medals, Colonel David H. Hackworth chose a life of self-imposed exile in Australia for eighteen years before returning to the United States in 1989. He is the author of three other books, Hazardous Duty, The Price of Honor, and Steel My Soldiers' Hearts. He died in 2005. John Pruden is an Earphones Award-winning audiobook narrator. His exposure to many people, places, and experiences throughout his life provides a deep creative well from which he draws his narrative and vocal characterizations. His narration of The Killing of Crazy Horse by Thomas Powers was chosen by the Washington Post as a Best Audiobook of 2010.
