This book written Six Years in the Hanoi Hilton: An
Extraordinary Story of Courage and Survival in Vietnam was
written by Amy Shively Hawk, Captain Shively’s adopted
daughter. It's a touching story of an American hero.
It's one of ultimate inspiration: despite brutal treatment in
prison, the contemplation of suicide, and his beloved girlfriend
moving on back home, he somehow found hope – proving, in his words,
that “Life is only what you make of it.”
Escaping prison and eventually reuniting with his long-lost love,
Six Years in the Hanoi Hilton is an encouraging story of hope and
love that America needs in this negative news cycle. It's a great
story and one that really shows what people are capable of under
the worst circumstances
