Character Carved in Stone

The 12 Core Virtues of West Point That Build Leaders and Produce Success

By: Pat Williams, Jim Denney

Narrated by: Pat Williams

Overlooking the Hudson River on the campus of the United States Military Academy at West Point are 12 granite benches, each inscribed with a word representing a key leadership virtue: compassion, courage, dedication, determination, dignity, discipline, integrity, loyalty, perseverance, responsibility, service, and trust. These benches remind cadets of the qualities that lead to victory and success, not just on the battlefield, but in all of life.

With his signature enthusiasm and insight, Pat Williams shares the incredible stories of West Point graduates who exemplified these traits, from the Civil War to the War on Terror. He shows listeners of all backgrounds how to develop these 12 essential virtues in their lives, whether they are in the corporate world, the academic world, the military, the church, or in some other sphere.

Craved In Stone

Have you wondered why Eagles seat in the tree’s by themselves? Leadership is something we have or if taught to you should be taught to whoever will listen to learn from your words!

If you are not the lead dog your scenery will ever change!

Great message - poor presentation

I need to stop listening to books narrated by the author…ugh.

This book has a very important message, but it is overshadowed by the poor presentation.

As an “Old Grad,” I was excited to open this important book, but found myself struggling to keep with it through the narration.
