Equal parts heartbreaking and uplifting, As Good as Dead is an incredible, moving tale told by a master storyteller. Moore’s research is impressive, but his remarkable ability to relate the human story of everyday Americans in time of war is what really makes this book so hard to put down. I highly recommend it
John C. McManus, author of The Dead and Those About to Die: D-Day: The Big Red One at Omaha Beach
Meticulously researched and grippingly told, As Good as Dead is a powerful story of brutality, suffering, and the ultimate triumph of the American spirit
James M. Scott, Pulitzer Prize Finalist and National Bestselling Author of Target Tokyo: Jimmy Doolittle and the Raid That Avenged Pearl Harbor
As Good as Dead tells an almost unbelievable story of cruelty and despair in which ordinary men survived by defiant determination, simply refusing to submit to their apparent fate. Stephen L. Moore tells the story of the Palawan survivors with great skill, and his book should be required reading to gain any understanding of the often neglected war in the Pacific
Gregory A. Freeman, author of The Forgotten 500: The Untold Story of the Men Who Risked All for the Greatest Rescue Mission of World War II
Visceral and heartrending, As Good as Dead details the stirring stories of eleven grimly determined men who—exercising incredible resolve and grit—survived seemingly impossible circumstances. An outstanding and important work
Jay A. Stout, author of Vanished Hero: The Life, War and Mysterious Disappearance of America’s Strafing King
