With Schwarzkopf is Gus Lee's remembrance of his coach and friend H. Norman Schwarzkopf, and his firsthand accounts of how Schwarzkopf formed his life. In 1966, Lee, a junior-year cadet at West Point, was excellent, athletic, and popular. He was also on the verge of getting kicked out. Nearing the bottom of his category anticipated to his penchant for participating in poker and reading recreationally instead of studying anatomist, he was assigned a new teacher: then-Major Norman Schwarzkopf. Schwarzkopf's deeply principled characteristics and fierce personality took hold of the wayward cadet, and the two began achieving regularly and speaking about what it meant to be considered a scholar, a soldier, and a guy. Lee's attractive, witty narrative brings his more than forty-year romance with Schwarzkopf alive. Listeners get an internal look at West Point culture; they see Schwarzkopf's bristling anger along with his rebellious pupil as well as his tenacity, intellect, and moments of surprising mental warmth; plus they watch as Lee starts off to soak up his teachings. As he left West Point and required on more professional and personal functions, Lee approached every turmoil or difficult decision by channeling his coach. Over the years, Schwarzkopf's instilled ideals, wise counsel, and warm interactions formed Lee and helped bring the two mutually in an unlikely friendship. In With Schwarzkopf, Lee passes along the lessons he learned so future generations can hear Schwarzkopf's important teachings.
