Sgt John Basilone is one of the greatest heroes of the Greatest Generation. He was the only Marine in World War II to have received the Medal of Honor, the Navy Cross, and a Purple Heart and is arguably the most famous Marine of all time. This biography looks inside the life of Basilone.

Jim Proser's first book, I'm Staying with My Boys, was awarded the United States Marine Corps Commandant's Recommendation. Prosner wrote and directed, with Jerry Cutter, a documentary of the same name, and I'm Staying with My Boys was used as source material for HBO's critically acclaimed, award-winning miniseries, The Pacific.
