Bøker av Pete Mecca

In Fights Like a Girl, veteran Pete Mecca compiles the personal stories of female warriors of all branches, ranks, and wars through a series of compelling interviews and stories from across time. Beyond amassing the first-person recollections of modern veterans, Mecca also details a rich history of female fighters of the past, from pirates to samurai, generalissimos, ancient mariners, and sailors donning in male uniforms. Fights Like a Girl is an ode to women of all races, creeds, and colors who have taken up the sword to protect their countries, their honor, and their children. 

Veterans: Stories From America's Best captures the voices of the men and women sent to war in far-off lands during America's wars of the last century. Many kept their experiences, whether brutal, humane, or comedic, under tight wraps. Pete Mecca has sought out these veterans and, in giving them an opportunity to tell their stories, shows their wartime experiences to be powerful and poignant. Their voices speak loud and clear as they tell their stories in this stark and moving book.- Greg Grimes COL, USA (R) Grand Prize Winner, MOAA National Military Writing Contest
