- Hard_Call abstract "Hard Call: Great Decisions and the Extraordinary People Who Made Them is a book written by United States Senator John McCain with Mark Salter. Its theme is decision-making based on personal principles. The hardcover edition was released August 14, 2007, and the paperback edition was subsequently released on February 29, 2008.McCain outlines a six-part structure for \"hard calls,\" with several detailed anecdotes illustrating each of the six parts: Awareness: Jackie Robinson \"intruding\" into all-white baseball; and Wernher von Braun, the rocket scientist. Foresight: Winston Churchill; Alexander Graham Bell; and Ronald Reagan when standing up to the Soviet Union. Timing: Boeing's production of the commercial jet aircraft; Gillette's invention of the disposable razor; and Anwar Sadat and Menachem Begin meeting for the peace process. Confidence: Civil War General George B. McClellan; Gertrude Ederle, the first woman to swim the English Channel; Dr. Judah Folkman, the Harvard surgeon who discovered cancer angiogenesis and invented the bases of modern oncology, and the Apollo 11 astronauts. Humility: The founding of Liberia; Harry Truman; and Gerald Ford's pardoning of Richard Nixon. Inspiration: The white commander of America's first black regiment; Alexander Solzhenitsyn; and Abraham Lincoln.This book is the second in a series - McCain and co-author Salter follow the blueprint of their previous book, Why Courage Matters: The way to a Braver Life, to provide readers with a series of character-as-history profiles of the men and women who shaped seminal moments in 20th century political and cultural history.".
