Above and Beyond: The Story of the Congressional Medal of Honor is a comprehensive historical account of the United States������� highest military honor. Written by Joseph L. Schott, a former Army officer and military historian, the book traces the origins of the Medal of Honor from its inception during the Civil War to its modern-day use in conflicts such as Iraq and Afghanistan. Schott�������s narrative covers the heroic actions of Medal of Honor recipients from all branches of the military, highlighting their bravery, selflessness, and sacrifice. He also delves into the political and cultural factors that have shaped the Medal of Honor�������s evolution over time, including controversies over racial and gender bias, and the role of the media in shaping public perception of the award. Above and Beyond is a well-researched and engaging work that sheds light on the history and significance of the Medal of Honor, and the men and women who have earned it through acts of valor and courage. It is a must-read for anyone interested in military history or the stories of America�������s greatest heroes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
