Reader reviews for The Luckiest Unlucky Man Alive: A Wild Ride Overcoming Life's Greatest Challenges and How You Can Too!

From the publisher

Extensive pre-publication publicity. Goss regularly appears on radio in major markets and has been featured on the TV show EXTRA.

- More than an inspirational biography--The Luckiest Unlucky Man Alive shows readers how they can be lucky too and overcome the greatest challenges in life.

Now a 42-year old retired Navy pilot, Lt. Commander Bill Goss was a garbageman, a golden glove boxer, a dynamiter in an underground copper mine, and an expert in underwater explosives in the U.S. Navy -- all while he worked his way through college. He served as a reconnaissance pilot specializing in spying on Russia's stealthiest and deadliest Soviet missile submarines. Bill has navigated the giant nuclear aircraft cartier USS Carl Vinson, cruised 1000 feet below the Mediterranean Sea in a nuclear submarine and flown 20 types of high-performance aircraft, including the sound barrier breaking F-18 Hornet.

But he considers diagnosis with cancer his greatest challenge of all when he was given only six months to live. Bill chose to undergo twelve hours of disfiguring surgery to overcome his incredibly low odds. It wasn't only his decisions but his attitude that made him a cancer survivor. The hilarious stories of his reconstructive surgeries will educate and inspire.

First line

"This can't be happening to me."
