Posted: 19 Mar 2025, 11:21
[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "And Goliath" by David Brown with Robert Gettlin.]
๐๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐๐ฐ๐ญ๐ช๐ข๐ต๐ฉ by David Brown with Robert Gettlin is a biography that gives an account of David Brown's life and one that underscores perseverance and a success mindset. David Brown describes himself as someone who possesses some priceless attributes of unbound persistence and determination. This book gives illustrations of this and many other traits that together shaped the life of David Brown, ushering him to victory at various stages of his life.
ย Brown has comprehensively given an account of his life right from a family perspective, his time at school, his experiences as a BUD/S trainee, his life as a SEAL and as an investigator. All these stages have illustrated a life of someone who went all out with determination, focus, persistence, and confidence to exploit his potential. Brown gave an overview of his relationship life with female figures like Mary and Sheryl to showcase his determination to overcome relationship or marriage challenges.
ย I proudly give this book a ๐-๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ-๐จ๐-๐-๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ซ rating. I loved several aspects of this book. One is the inspiration that David Brown passes to his readers. As they wrote, "Understanding why you can do something establishes a base for you to stand on while you battle fears, and from that foundation comes confidence." David's life is a testament that one can build confidence through difficult situations and setbacks, and through overcoming setbacks, trusting in yourself will help you overcome unfair aspects of life and consequently achieve success.ย
The authors began every chapter with a quote to herald the concept they were to discuss in that chapter. The quote at the start of chapter five reads, "Mediocrity doesn't just happen; it is chosen over time through small choices day by day."
I appreciated how David demonstrated his skills in a variety of challenging situations, such as football, wrestling, Navy SEAL training, marriage, and his role as an investigator. The reader will be able to comprehend the concepts clearly.
ย I did not encounter anything to make me dislike this book. The book was professionally and flawlessly edited, as I did not meet any typo errors.ย
I recommend this book to people who love autobiography or biography books. They will find David's life fascinating and, most importantly, borrow several lessons that will positively impact their lives.
