About this ebook

New York Times bestselling author Martha MacCallum returns with another deeply researched, emotional collection of stories, a beautifully illustrated keepsake covering 250 years of American valor.

With The Book of Valor, Martha MacCallum tells a story of America through the first-person “voices” of twelve men and women.

From the brave women of the Mayflower, determined to survive in the New World, to the youngest member of the Lewis and Clark expedition; to two underdog heroes of World War II to a young man with a bright future who laid down his life to save others from the top of the burning tower on 9/11—they lived our extraordinary history.

Included are the stories of:

  • Lewis and Clark in the wilds of Montana
  • Joshua Chamberlain at Gettysburg
  • Mother Cabrini in New York City
  • Patrick Henry Brady in the skies of Vietnam


The Book of Valor is a study in overcoming fear and keeping your eyes on the prize in the most challenging of moments. These individuals lived and died pursuing the best of America and protecting its values and its future.

Join Martha on an incredible, unique journey from 1620 to 2008. The Book of Valor is a classic treasure, designed to be read over and over with your family for generations to come.
