Drawing on extensive interviews and recently declassified files, Orr Kelly presents the first in-depth look at the origin, evolution and future of this revered military elite. With unique new insight into their tactics and their methods, their past triumphs and scandals, including the celebrated Marcinko (Rogue Warrior) case, Kelly leads us into the shadowy realm of danger and deception where SEAL commandos live -- and sometimes die -- by their own rules. - Back cover.
