**The second book by former Navy SEAL Mark Owen, following his multimillion-copy classic about the bin Laden mission *No Easy Day*, in which he tells the stories from his career that were most personal to him and that made him the operator and the person he is today**
While Mark Owen’s instant *New York Times* bestseller *No Easy Day* focused on the high-profile targets and headline-grabbing chapters of the author’s career, *No Hero* will be an account of the most personally meaningful missions from Owen’s thirteen years as a SEAL, including the moments in which he learned the most about himself and his teammates, in both success and failure.
Mark Owen describes his intentions for his second book best: �I want *No Hero* to offer something most books on war don’t: the intimate side of it, the personal struggles and hardships and what I learned from them. The stories in *No Hero* will be a testament to my teammates and to all the other active and former SEALs who have dedicated their lives to freedom. In our community, we are constantly taught to mentor the younger generation and to pass the lessons and values we’ve learned on to others so that they can do the same to the guys coming up after them. This is what I plan to do for the reader of *No Hero*.”
Every bit as action-packed as *No Easy Day*, and featuring stories from the training ground to the battlefield, *No Hero* offers readers an unparalleled close-up view of the experiences and values that make Mark Owen and the men he served with capable of executing the missions we read about in the headlines.
