Books by Robert K. Brown

"Robert K. Brown, former Green Beret, after a bizarre military career that succeeded in getting him kicked out of Special Forces not once but twice, and completing the Command and General Staff College without a security clearance, while meantime being wounded in Nam, finally found his true calling as a publisher. Forty years ago he launched an upstart magazine from his basement called Soldier of Fortune, which pushed the bounds of journalism to its limits with his untamed brand of reporting--a camera in one hand, a gun in the other, and soon thereafter he discovered that he'd established a worldwide community. His notorious magazine became an icon for action-seekers in the U.S. and around the world. In this book Brown tells his own story, taking the readers into combat zones where he and his "dogs of war" trotted across the globe. His rogue warrior journalists embedded themselves with anti-Communist guerillas or freedom fighters, often training and fighting with rebels against oppressive regimes. In their revolutionary journalistic style, they created the action and then wrote about it. This is the story of Robert Brown's dogged quest, in journalism as well as warfare, to "Slay Dragons, do noble deeds and never, never give up." "
