Synopsis
Translates the author's hard-won wisdom into a compelling collection of wisdom Guides readers on the topics of virtue, legacy, happiness, communal economics, the importance of reading, and much more During the current climate of social unrest, political partisanship, and a devastating worldwide pandemic, The Spirit to Soar helps readers examine crises from the past and extract valuable lessons from them Presents the life-altering experience of being held captive as a prisoner of war in North Vietnam from a "big-picture" perspective--specifically, the individual and collective power of traditional American values Serves as a "wake-up call" to readers, asking them to consider whether their values are compelling enough to help them survive the inevitable tough times faced periodically Encourages readers to build courage by facing their fears, controlling their minds, and finding what makes them thankful Stresses the importance of maintaining a sense of humor, even during the darkest times Explains how to overcome the greatest challenges by holding true to one's values, learning patience, finding unconditional love, adapting as life changes, finding new ways to do things, reinventing oneself, and knowing the source of inner strength, On January 23rd, 1967, Lt. Colonel Barry Bridger and his copilot, Dave Grey, launched a mission over Vietnam in their Phantom F-4 fighter jet in treacherous weather. It was Colonel Bridger's 75th mission and the only one he had attempted in the daylight hours. Suddenly, his plane was split in half by a ground-to-air missile. He and Grey ejected while the plane was going 600 miles per hour and began their descent into the unknown below. When Bridger finally landed on terra firma , he found the North Vietnamese army waiting for him. They arrested him and Grey and checked them into The Hanoi Hilton: a place designed to break the spirit of all who entered. Lt. Colonel Bridger not only survived this horrific ordeal; he thrived. He says his deeply held values saved him and his fellow prisoners. Are your values compelling enough and ingrained deeply enough to sustain you through a situation in which, like Barry, you are captured by a savage enemy and subjected to years of torture? Are your values such that you can make it through the inevitable tough times we all face periodically that make it hard to continue? The Spirit to Soar is filled with valuable life lessons about how to thrive and how to use every experience to help you successfully face the next one., The Spirit to Soar is an inspiring story of perseverance, faith, and courage causing people to reflect on their own values and how they inform everyday life.

  • The Spirit To Soar is a very appropriate title when you consider the way he has lived his life in spite of the odds.

    This book is about a man from my hometown and I remember him being a pow and then a hometown welcome on his return home. It is quite compelling and I read it in a couple of days. I would recommend it to others.
